I thought that the usage of 'URI' in the MT document was correct. Which of the following are URIs, can anyone give me some insight? http://www.coginst.uwf.edu http://www.coginst.uwf.edu/users/phayes/w3-rdf-mt-2.1_draft.html http://www.coginst.uwf.edu/users/phayes/w3-rdf-mt-2.1_draft.html#rdf_entail http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type rdf:type aaa Pat (that's my signature, not a URI) PS. Aaron, would it be OK if I just used the N-triples term 'uriref' for the node labels? I don't want to proliferate names unnecessarily. Or, I could consistently refer to 'URI labels' in the text, after explaining that this means, using Graham's wording. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- IHMC (850)434 8903 home 40 South Alcaniz St. (850)202 4416 office Pensacola, FL 32501 (850)202 4440 fax phayes@ai.uwf.edu http://www.coginst.uwf.edu/~phayes
