Re: [Specifications] Relative Template URIs (#208)

I disagree. It's like treating nested HTML tags as separate documents. Spec is clear and says about documents. While you could imagine a situation when another document is embedded within RDF (i.e. as a raw base64 string inside of some value), but part of the document's graph should not be treated as separate documents.

Don't get me wrong - I have no issues with prototyping. It just looks like the commit is on a release candidate branch and I just don't want us to take any design decisions under pressure. Whole process should be clean and transparent from W3C point of view.

I bet! I hope to lower number of those gaps.

Back to the topic - is there any agreement to adding new predicates for IriTemplate that would mark it for separate template expansion algorithm, i.e. `hydra:expansionAlgorithm` accepting values from which the default would point to the RFC mentioned?
