Re: [ELPA] New package: triples

[Andrew Hyatt]

Yes, this is in theory possible depending on how you use this library!  I've seen this done as CVTs (Compound Value Types).  To take your example, (Joe HAS employee status) SINCE 2012-10-28, it'd be something like:

Subject: Joe

Predicate: /employment/status

Object: "6988a214-368c-40a2-9e51-8a7f5549de44"

Subject: "6988a214-368c-40a2-9e51-8a7f5549de44"

Predicate: /employment/start

Object: "2012-10-28"

I have forgot to mention that any relationship subject, predicate,
object, itself, should be capable of becoming both subject and object.

Employee IS status
Joe HAS employee (status)
Date IS TIME, etc.
2012-10-28 IS date
(Joe HAS employee status) SINCE 2012-10-28
ABC INC. IS company
Company EMPLOYED Joe
Trevis HAS manager (status)
(Company EMPLOYED Joe) HAS Trevis
((Company EMPLOYED Joe) HAS Trevis) MANAGES Joe

and so on
