Re: issue-34 example

Andy, 

It seems that we will never see eye-to-eye on this :) 
I just think that what you want to do with LDP, is different from what I want to do. 

I want solutions where servers which guide my clients through a service. If it is "unfriendly week", the hypermedia directing linking with the :friend predicate shouldn't be there. Your solution is essentially allowing any data to be added. 

Would you agree ? 

I hope we can support both in LDP (I think we can).
