Re: representing deserialized RDF - N3, JSON-LD, RDFa, XML/RDF

Hi,

You got some very nice points there and it certainly makes sense to discuss this.

> I would find it very cool if while using all those parsers/serializes we could keep common representation of deserialized dataset.

What do you exactly mean with “keep”?
Should use at all points, or offer conversion mechanisms?

The former would be difficult, as the choice for representations is something library-specific
(as you can see in pretty much any language).
However, the latter could be cool: if there was some common memory format we could agree on;
then each library should just convert from and to it, and then interoperation is possible (although costly).

Stating the obvious: could JSON-LD play that role?

Best,

Ruben
