Did you have a specific syntax in mind? No not really. But when I'm thinking about processors, I'm thinking about code that dealing with io, parsing and serialization, rather than code that processes or manipulates rdf triples or graphs. I observed that most references in the M&S to processing seem to be concerned with the former . Frankly, it's difficult to get a clean distinction and isn't worth spending much time fussing over; we surely have bigger fish and all that. > I'm not sure that modifying the M&S text is that useful until > we get to drafting the whatever replaces the model bits of M&S. > I suggest that I add this to the list of editorial comments on M&S and > we can then deal with it at the appropriate time.
