Delete it, or move it later? I'll try to say it better. I put a note there in response to a worry someone else had about leaving this until later. Maybe the thing to do is to put all the discussion early on, but in a 'technical aside' so its easy to skip if one isn't interested. >o section 2, para before 2a > > typo "qua nodes"? Not a typo, but I'll try to say it in anglo-saxon. >o section 2a, para 3 > > Each arc (triple) labeled with <s p o> > > Arc's are labeled with p, not <s p o>, possibly: > > Each arc from node s to node o with label p ... Right, I was being sloppy. The arc goes from a node labelled with s to an node labelled with o and is itself labelled with p. BTW, I notice that some people (also the M&S) write triples in the order p s o. Is this likely to confuse people, and should I put in a note emphasising that I use s p o to conform to Ntriples? >o section 5, para 2 > > "germane to questions of bag identity" > > I'm confused by the bag identity stuff.

The usual way of thinking about bags (containers more generally) is that they *are* determined by their contents, so there seems to be a mismatch between RDF and the rest of the world here. We could just dodge it by saying 'equivalence'; but in any case I'm actioned to remove the containers stuff from the working paper, so lets get back to this later. >o section 5, para 3 > > "containers are a series on IR" > > a series on IR union LV? Yes. I changed (IR union LV) to IR here to allow the 'distributive' reading of rdf:Alt when an alt was used as a subject; but to hell with trying to be clever with rdf:Alt, is the conclusion I now have come to.
