Sorry, I know absolutely nothing about Neo4j or RDF/OWL, but the edges are in fact trivial. As everything in PicoLisp is a pointer (except short numbers), the edges are indeed just pointers to other symbols. All those symbols in a DB (called "external symbols") are loaded lazily on demand. ☺/ A!ex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
