While still digesting all these messages, we try to give some points. A statement triple is unique but we can have many notations: 1. Plain RDF: <rdf:Description about="s"> <p>o</p> </rdf:Description> 2. Assembly RDF: <rdf:Statement> <rdf:subject>s</rdf:subject> <rdf:predicate>p</rdf:predicate> <rdf:object>o</rdf:object> </rdf:Statement> It is a bit lengthy and could be used for nesting s and o. 3. Interned notation: [s]p[o] This is rather compact and could be used for nesting s and o. If we assert a statement triple we have a fact or rule (stating). It's just an idea, but why not use that interned thing as a (Skolem) value for the statement triple identification? So one could write things like context-URI#[s]p[[a]b[c]] It is reasonably compact, is easy to compute, can handle nested models, etc... -- Jos De Roo p.s. for a quad we assume that the context-URI is the extra thing
