How would we do that? If there were a NOT operator in SPARQL, or something to check non-existence, that would be great. I couldn't find one in the 30 minutes I went looking for a solution. Test #23 checks for non-existence in a very clever way by constructing the XHTML in such a way that if an incorrect triple were to be generated, the test would fail: http://rdfa.digitalbazaar.com/rdfa-test-harness/ I don't know if this approach would work for every non-existence test, but I doubt it. Also, didn't we agree in one of the conversations that generating extra triples is fine? So, should we really be writing tests that prevent people from generating extra triples? -- manu -- Manu Sporny President/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: Over One Million Songs Available on Bitmunk http://blog.digitalbazaar.com/2007/10/29/one-million-songs-on-bitmunk/
