Abstract. We are interested in creating a peer-to-peer infrastructure for the collaborative creation of knowledge, with no centralized point of control. We show how documents in a P2P file-sharing network can be interlinked, using a naming scheme based on the document schema and content, rather than on the document location. The interlinked documents can be seen as a distributed graph of documents, for which we define a class of graph queries supported by our file-sharing system.

Keywords: Peer-to-peer, file-sharing, graph queries, Semantic Web
