Are you suggesting that RDF::URI implement `#relativize` instead of the writer classes, that we should use `#route_to/#route_from` from Addressable::URI? We can't really do the latter because it returns a _normalized_ URI, which could change the semantics (i.e., <foo/bar/> is different than <foo/./bar> for RDF purposes, even though they normalize to the same URI). Really, only string-substitution is appropriate here. Driving this as an issue at http://github.com/ruby-rdf/rdf/issues will track this going forward if you'd like to see an enhancement. Gregg
