December 08, 2002Facets & Topic Maps
You can have a faceted organization of concepts in a topic map, but don't confuse the topic map standard's use of the word facet with faceted classification. For some reason, the standard introduced the term facet with a completely different meaning.
"Topic Maps: an overview" by Philip C. Murray, explains the different definitions of the term. He also outlines the more traditional relationships and which of these are possible with topic maps.
Speaking of facets, I finally perfected the MT template for my xfml output.
