Hi Steve, > However, it looks like the sample data in [3] is a simple tree. Is it possible to add some more triples to it so that it expresses more of RDF graph nature? e.g. loops, diamonds, repeated references etc. > > Something like: > > <http://jondoe.example.org/#me> :address _:addr . > <http://janedoe.example.org/#me> :address _:addr . > > _:addr :street "1 Some Street" ; > :postcode "W1A 1AA" ; > :city "The Metrop" ; > :inhabitant <http://jondoe.example.org/#me>, <http://janedoe.example.org/#me> . This doesn't sound like a big problem (BTW, was this on the sample graph Wiki? [1]). None of the serializations enforces inlining, so shared/circular references can be realized just as you did in your mark-up above in JSON using the particular blank node or node referencing mechanics of each serialization, which is shown in, e.g., the foaf:knows part. Does this respond to your doubt?
