RDF or RIS
Does this make any difference, into which format we export RIS or RDF?
Which is better, from a developer point of view?
RIS is very easy to parse.RDF also seems to have support, but it looks more of pain.
Is there any other advantage of one over another, not only form developer's view but in general also?
Thanks,

RIS is more widely adopted and is arguably more stable than RDF, but RDF allows for a much richer expression of Zotero items. It is not lossless, but it is less lossy than RIS.
I though t the following observations made by me are pertinent to this conversation.

I actually want to parse the RIS/RDF file and further upload files somewhere. As per your comments, one thing is sure that we should use RDF format, as RIS will lead to loss of data.
Lets say once we have RDF file, now i want to parse it in c#, what all options do i have?
