Given that I objected to the proposed resolution of this issue at the last meeting I have been asked to provide an alternative resolution. My proposal: An rdf:ID attribute is permissable on all property elements and always refers to the resource that is the reification of the triple corresponding to that property element. Notes: - this allows rdf:ID and rdf:resource on the same property element which is a change. - this favours a reading of the relevant contradiction in M&S in which para232 is dropped and para214 is preferred. Reasons for this are: - M&S is contradictory and has widely varying implementations of its reification syntax. - This WG must resolve the contradiction. - My proposed resolution is very simple, and hence makes reification significantly more usable, and less of a barrier to RDF take-up.
