and commenting on my own message - big question is a single
military relation with extensive subtypes, or a bunch of distinct
relations. since i'm interested in describing movements, it would
be
type=ohm:movement
vs
type=ohm:military
ohm:military=movement
but do these really have enough in common for a single type
to be appropriate? i'm thinking no, not really.
FYI, movement would consist of an ordered list of ways
and nodes with dates attached, and some sort of description
of what was moving (regiment, division, supplies, ...)
the eventual goal is to be able to support animations of several
kinds.
