Freebase keeps their graph layer a secret

Is is a Google company now, working on graph convolutions, But they wan't let us see the source code of the graph layer. What is te graph layer in the G machine? Mostly SQLITE3!, hard for me to keep that a secret. But the other part of the graph layer is 200 lines of code that can open, append, update and close nested triplets.

Freebase is working the nested form, they don't yet a minimal encapsulation for a node. BHut they read my blog, give then a few days.

What is interesting is the close relationship between Freebase and Wiki. Wiki is doing exactly the right thing, melding their format into a usable ontology in nested form. It looks very much like we will get a graph layer, a public standard, which will be a further refinement of JSON/BSON.
