I have been thinking about the idea of the introspector and the relevance of rdf.

If we were to see the entire set of compiler toolchain as a set of rdf consumers and producers, what would be the result?

Each program would read in rdf and emit rdf. Each algorithm will add in new predicates into the soup.

For example : The graph layout tool would add in x y positions.

But what about context? How can we represent the partitioning of rdf data?

What about the idea of multiple view on the same base data? A View would be a context. When a object is viewed it occurs in that context with a viewed predicate.
