Sorry for the confusion, I'm having trouble expressing the last sentence. How about: "That is, all parsers should assign the same genids to the same anonymous resources in the same document." Or better, that all parsers generate the same triples for each document. This does a number of things: - It gets the notion of anonymous resource out of the abstract syntax - It makes parsers interchangeable - It allows triples to be compared with a simple sort/diff -- [ "Aaron Swartz" ; <mailto:me@aaronsw.com> ; <http://www.aaronsw.com/> ]
