My question is THIS: Is it essential that the backend be a triple store - or could an rdbms based store simply be tapped for elements of triples from contextually relevant records, to then be fed into an RDF/OWL structure on the fly and handled/interpreted accordingly? Thanks for your thoughts. Eric -- Eric Hoffer Second Integral
