We have some detailed examples in the supplementary material of our PLOSone paper [1]. As Paolo says, OA Selector methods generally work for queries. You just need domain vocabulary for the query variables. With just a little dance the pattern can even be given meaning signalling annotations that make an assertion intended to hold for an arbitrary database that can make sense of the query. --Bob [1] Semantic Annotation of Mutable Data http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0076093 On Tue, Feb 4, 2014 at 7:56 PM, Doug Schepers <schepers@w3.org> wrote: > Hi, Paolo- > > Not to drill too deep into details, but what would such a selector look > like? > > Regards- > -Doug > > > On 2/4/14 7:38 PM, Paolo Ciccarese wrote: >> >> Hi Doug, Bob, all, >> in the current Open Annotation model - and that was true for Open >> Annotation Collaboration and Annotation Ontology models - the data >> annotation is supported and an important aspect of the overall idea.
