Thanks.

I love this great module too!
I am learning and trying to organize my nodes into a topic map. Category module with freetagging is a good and simple solution but is lack of relationship among the categories.

OK, I'm starting on this.
Looks pretty painless so far, But I'm doing a code review of everything to see how much I can strip out to an accessable lite core API vs my complicated layers of logic and RDF-ness.

While I'm on it, can anyone suggest where in the new admin layout the 'Relationships' section should go?
Under " Content management" alongside categories or in 'build' with the structural bits?

I think it would defintely be Content Management.

Any progress or updates on this?

It seems like there are a number of people here who would be happy to help with testing, etc.

I really apologise for my inability to commit to getting progress on this.
I've been doing real jobs and getting paid real money instead :-}

What happened was after my 4.6/4.7 proof-of concept work, migrating it to 5.0 (which is sorta done in HEAD) threw up which bits were over-complex and inefficient - after being worked over so many times even I couldn't be sure of the dependancies any more.
This stems from my misguided attempt to use the RDF logic/syntax to describe the internal rules themselves. It is theoretically possible, but also highly recursive. So I ended up with strange loops when bootstrapping - then messy work-arounds for them.

This (and other discussions over in the Relationship groups discussions) all told me that I needed a re-write to strip down to a minimal API so that other folk would be able to join in. That's just not happened in the last few months.
I'm torn between the need to start-from-scratch and the uncomfortable desire not to throw out the lessons I learnt and features I added in the first few iterations.

... and of course simple time/money constraints.

:(

Subscribing...

I'm glad you're still trying to work on this when you can.

If you get a break from paid work and could do some paid work on this Agaric may be interested in sponsoring – no promise yet, we'd have to look into it more – but if you do have a break coming up contact Agaric. Thanks!
