| + | * Translation API -- given a resource in a declared input language, provide an artifact in the target language (or as close as possible given distinctions in expressivity; with logging to say why it couldn't do something, what was lost, if anything, etc. in cases where the content language is different rather than strictly the format) | ||
| + | * typically batch, stateless | ||
| + | * can be invoked by CRUD APIs as needed | ||
| + | * may need state management in cases where the client is not asserting the translation to the KB: if the source is maintained in the KB, then translation could be done on demand -- source could be added incrementally, but translation could be executed on the fly and either instantiated in the KB or serialized out per the export capability of the CRUD APIs | ||
