Henry's note suggests that it should generate 2, as he is using the notation as shorthand. In other words, parsing this should not generate any blank nodes. I would support that interpretation, which I think would need to be documented. It would be a shame to generate bnodes as a consequence of solely wanting an abbreviation. -Alan On Oct 3, 2007, at 10:36 AM, Story Henry wrote: > :me foaf:knows [ owl:sameAs <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#me>; > a foaf:Person; > foaf:name "Dan Connolly" ] . > > That saves me having to look around the file for the info, and it > also save me having to type a URL twice, which is more likely to > cause a bug. > > If I don't do that I would have to write > > :me foaf:knows <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#me>. > <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/#me> a foaf:Person; > foaf:name "Dan Connolly" .
