I've sent Ian a UML diagram showing relationships between a number of terms that we use in the document, such as: representation, data, metadata, resource, uri, message, agent, format, media type, fragment identifier, schema language. I'd like to formally propose to the tag that we include a diagram that shows the relationships between many of the terms that we talk about in our document. I have done the same in the extensibility and versioning finding with the terminology diagram. Ian has suggest that we gradually introduce the terms, like rep/resource/uri, followed by message/rep/data/metadata. I like that idea a lot and support it. I've suggested another few diagram subsets that would be useful. I do think that we should have a complete model of most of the terms that we talk about, not just fragments. I'd like the tag to formally discuss and hopefully approve this idea. I suggest that this could be part of section 6, which has an index to terms (ie glossary). I'm amenable to various notational styles of the model. I simply picked uml as I'm familiar with it, it's somewhat standardized, and I have tools for it. I'd like to see a diagram in 3.1, pretty much what we had written up on the board in vancouver. Cheers, Dave
