There isn't a single right answer. Somehow mixed content leads people to think of chunks as coherent pieces, and some of the shredding cases I've discussed with people keep large pieces of mixed content, typically (X)HTML, in the same shredded bit rather tearing deeper into it. Yep. I suspect the underlying reality is that people are doing so many things with so many different kinds of parts that solutions are evolving in multiple directions.So for Roger I'd say that I think the direction I see is more hybrid stores (from Virtuoso to MarkLogic..) and more variation being acceptable as people come to recognize that different needs are best served with different technologies. Which is pretty cool, actually! Though it creates vast confusion for organizations that just want an answer yesterday. Thanks, Simon
