Yes, that's what I had previously assumed, but if a reified statement is still a statement then it contradicts this claim from Peter Patel-Schneider : >> (In RDF terms >> this would probably be using a statement as the >> subject of another >> statement, which can't be done in RDF.) which he re-inforced with the following: >> This can't be done in DAML+OIL >> because assertions cannot have associated information. Hence my confusion. Cheers, Ian
