The literals as resources looks nice, but probably needs postponing until RDF 2.0. jan PS. on a related note: What's just as nice is an RDF database that can generate "shadowing" resources for literals (potentially, on the fly) - Danbri and I've been knocking this idea around the office for ages: <data:...> <literalhack:shadows> "foo" . - the idea being that you can use relationships on the shadowing resources (literalhack:hasSubstring) to express query constraints. Initially I was using anonymous resources for this, but the data: uris seem a more logical choice. -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287163 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 RFC822 jan.grant@bris.ac.uk Axioms speak louder than words.
