Frank, overall the section on reification reads beautifully. One niggle: right after the second table, giving the example reification, you say: "These statements say that the resource identified by the URIref exproducts:triple12345 is an RDF statement, that the subject of the statement is the resource identified by exproducts:item10245 , the predicate of the statement is the resource identified by exterms:weight , and the object of the statement is the decimal value identified by the typed literal "2.4"^^xsd:decimal ." but in fact this ought, strictly, say that the subject of the statement denotes (or refers to) the resource identified by... etc., and similarly for the predicate and object. Or, you could say that the subject of the statement is the URI reference 'exproducts:item10245' which (of course) identifies the resource, etc.. I am being very picky here, so maybe this is inappropriate for the first example in a primer. Your decision. Pat P.S. strictly correct wording might be like this: These statements say that the resource identified by the URIref exproducts:triple12345 is an RDF statement, that the subject of the statement refers to the resource identified by exproducts:item10245 , the predicate of the statement refers to the resource identified by exterms:weight , and the object of the statement refers to the decimal value identified by the typed literal "2.4"^^xsd:decimal ." -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- IHMC (850)434 8903 or (650)494 3973 home 40 South Alcaniz St. (850)202 4416 office Pensacola (850)202 4440 fax FL 32501 (850)291 0667 cell phayes@ihmc.us http://www.ihmc.us/users/phayes
