I'm not making any syntactic comments - I can invent an N-Triples
change and/or some RDF/XML to implement both of these ideas fairly
easily (if challenged). I'd rather we concentrated on the model
aspects of this.
My concerns are:
* Is adding dark triples a good idea?
I'd like use cases to support this. Foundation and semweb layering
is a start; informal indications that WebOnt need this is another.
* Is adding 'contexts'/whatever a good idea?
Use cases would help here too; the widespread use of N3 {}
(TimBL calls formulas) is an indicator.
* Would these be required to implement RDF or optional?
I suspect they'd have to be optional, in the way RDF Schema is optional.
* Is it a good idea to make these changes at this time in the WG process?
Don't know; if this starts taking too long, too much energy, we
should consider punting.
(Although if we don't do it now, it won't be till a successor WG)
