Hi all,

I just read up a bit on the PROV ontology (https://www.w3.org/TR/prov-o) 
and was wondering if this was ever considered, especially for keeping 
context after a collection filter operation and similar things which 
create some derived resource using an IriTemplate for example.

In particular, I'm thinking about a more sane way than introducing terms 
like "filteredFrom". PROV has a standard model for that where you can 
say that a resource is derived from another resource by connecting the 
two through an activity which says what happened and where you could 
attach the IriTemplate as well. It's quite lightweight in my opinion and 
the way to use it would be to have a new type "hydra:FilterActivity" to 
give it some more meaning, and then a hydra:filter attached to the 
activity and also something where the used Iri parameters go (I guess 
that wouldn't be inside :filter, but not sure).

Just a thought.

Cheers
Maik
