Hi Christoph, > I.e. the reasoning in > http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/httpRange-14/2007-05-31/HttpRange-14#iddiv1138805816 > (essentially the same as what you said above) is clear to me from a > philosophical point of view, but not from a technical one. I'm taking a more > pragmatic view here, as the information that we would like to serve is not > necessarily "the one, true and only concept of Berlin", but rather something > more pragmatic, such as "our view of Berlin, as we happen to define it (in > RDF)" – and IMHO the latter can as well be unified with an information > resource. You give the answer to yourself. "Your view of Berlin, as you happen to define it (in RDF)" can be served as an RDF document under a specific URI. But within this document you will use "the one true and only URI of Berlin" (whatever this is) to talk about the actual city. I think you will agree that the former is something different from the latter, and thus deserves to have its own URI. Best, Bernhard
