Revised MT document from Graham Klyne on 2002-01-30 (w3c-rdfcore-wg@w3.org from January 2002) (original) (raw)

Jos,

Per appendix C, I understand that this issue remains open to change as far as Pat's MT document is concerned. Until we (the group) actually decide what to do, I think the existing text is fine.

Pat,

If XL is really a global mapping I assume that each literal node is mapped into one-and-ony-one literal value or have I misunderstood global? then I don't see why .. A literal node is a particular occurrence of a literal .. literal nodes are unique to each graph. .. several occurrences of a literal produce several rectangles with the same label .. literal nodes are not 'merged' in this way

I think that the most convenient global mapping is XL(literal-as-simple-name) = literal-as-simple-name i.e. the identity mapping
