Hi Dmitry,

We can have an additional topic map (provenanace topic map) in which
topics correspond to Items from "domain level" topic maps.
These topics use "domain level" Item Idintifiers to refence back to
constructs from "domain level" topic maps.
I'm not sure I understand that properly.
Is it like:
Top level - topics for TM item constructs: topic item, association item,
occurrence item...etc.
Then occurrences of those top level topics refer to particular items in
e.g. user topic map.
Then each, e.g., occurrence from the top level map pointing at
information items of the user topic map is reified, and then metadata
attached to the reified topic.
Is that roughly what you mean?
If you design a topic map engine, I would recommend to incorporate
provenance information inside of your data model (kind of TMDM extension
at implementation level). In this case, at any time, you can export
extensions as a "provenance topic map" in XTM
Yes, my thinking is heading that way. For one thing it is easier to cope
with the messaging.
Thanks,
Peter
Dmitry
