Dereferencing URLs in RDF

Semantic Web Interest Group,

I am excited to share another technical development. Drawing inspiration from pointers in computer-programming languages like C and C++, proposed for RDF is that the * symbol could be used to dereference URLs into: IRIs, literals, triples, quads, graphs, and datasets.

Hopefully interesting! Thank you for any questions, comments, or other feedback either here or in the discussion thread.


Best regards,
Adam Sobieski

P.S.: I am also pleased to report that the previous idea has become the beginnings of "MIME-LD": https://github.com/AdamSobieski/Web/discussions/6 .
