| Consider a service that translates a topic map document, e.g., XTM,
| into this internal model and the re-serializes it, e.g., as a
| "consistent topic map" using the XTM syntax. I would say that this
| is a "topic map processor".
So would I. The plan is that ISO 13250-3: Topic Maps -- XML Syntax
will pretty much say that, though it will word it differently. In
other words: so long as you interpret the syntax correctly, and detect
all invalid topic maps, you are a conformant processor.
| Perhaps this was one of the points of the topic maps reference model
| (or the topic maps processing model) -- that you can re-represent
| the XTM syntax as a set of assertions using an ARCx (assertion node,
| role node, casting node, player node).
I know.
