[xsl] XSLT 2.0/FXSL Six Degrees of Separation Semantic Web Challenge

["M. David Peterson" <m.david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As per the bottom of  
http://www.oreillynet.com/xml/blog/2007/11/dimitre_novatchevfxsl_closing.html  
which builds off of Dimitre Novatchev's recent post to his own blog  
regarding the addition of support for transitive closures in FXSL,

	"... doesnbt this seem to be exactly the type of functionality perfectly  
suited for locating relationships between documents on the Semantic Web?  
For example, given a set of URIbs and a maximum depth, return a node-set  
which contains all documents that link back to a specific URI within the  
range specified by the maximum depth. A Six Degrees of Separation app  
written in XSLT 2.0 and FXSL would seem to me to be the perfect candidate  
to highlight this capability. Of course you would need to know who owned  
the URI of the current document being parsed to make the proper  
connections. But it seems to me that this problem could at least be  
partially solved using the Atom feeds of a given set of blogs as the base  
set.

	"Anybody up for the challenge? :D"

Anybody?
