In this scribble I’ll discuss an implementation of different topological structures, which can be used for indexing different “relation systems”, for example trees for menus, book structures, etc… graphs for caching links between pages.

We can split the problem into two main subproblems. First, navigation and queries withing a single relation domain. For example local table of contents for a section in a book. Second is higher order or inter-domain queries. For example: given a node, determine the all related nodes, ordering them by their distance from the node, based on taxonomy, their position in a book(s), and their position in the site’s “link web”. We should be able to implement second and hier order based queries, based on the results of these two basic problems.

Attached is a mockup of the files dialog inside the create content >> Foo pages. The mockup is annotated, and available as svg. PLease send me any improved svgs and/or pngs.

More mockups will follow. I.e, how the “edit” screen looks.

This chapter contains all the requirements (what should it do), functional descriptions (what does what) and the targets (what we watn to achieve). Please log in to edit, this is a first draft.

These wiki pages are the home of the “modular file system”, or better known as “betterupload” module.

This is a very dirty and mathematically not precise dialogue between me and me on “general” relations in drupal.

What is a relation

Something taking the form of (object,predicate,subject), or in its general form (objects,predicate,subjects). The predicate can be viewed as a label denoting the relation. In a lot of cases, the predicate of a relation is implied.

Yes, but what does that mean?

Well, with relations we can express things like X is part of Y or x,y,z are Y

Ok, but give me some more real examples
