I tried to search through and figure it out before I posted the comment, figuring if I saw a few examples I'd get it, but I just got more confused. This sounds like a really interesting concept for building a essentially a human knowledge base with individual assertions built on eachother, maybe linked and networked with other assertions via the publications bit so you can start tracing where the knowledge came from/the background etc. But I couldn't figure out how it's supposed to do anything or how scientists are supposed to interact with the standard, and if I was even understanding the capabilities of this correctly. Is there a central repository for these, or a user interface to create/peer review/publish/read nanopublications? Who is supposed to implement the standard, who is supposed to use it, and how is it supposed to be used? I was hoping looking through examples would clear that up but I just ended up more confused and am hoping someone more knowledgeable can bail me out on that.
