Abstract syntax, yes. I didn't want to give RDF-based examples for
fear of prejudicing the answers, but it seems the alternative may be
no answers at all. :)

So, if I wanted to say that "this article is a draft", I might try
creating a type for all things which are drafts, for example:

  (articlex, rdf:type, :Draft)

Or I could make it a property and say that this property is true for
this thing:

  (articlex, :is-draft, :true)

Or...something? Any ideas? How do people on this list usually handle
this problem?
