The question is, if such a mechanism (identifiable, dereferencable g-snap/constant g-box) is inside the scope of the RDF WG. If it is not, is there a WG that fits? Thinking out loud, without any judgement on the different options: 1. Prov-WG probably requires *some* solution to this in order to properly represent provenance in RDF, so Prov-WG might define it. 2. RDF-WG might define it, probably as a new addition to the RDF Schema vocabulary 3. GLD-WG might define it, as it has several work items about blessing (or, in the absence of good existing specs, standardizing) several vocabularies, including a “metadata vocabulary suitable for provenance”. 4. We might document some best practice how to assert that a graph is “frozen” using existing vocabularies such as DC. 5. We might defer it to the community. Best, Richard
