+The Aquanet system, introduced by `Marshall et al (1991)`_,
+unified ideas from the freely structured hypertext systems
+and tightly structure knowledge representation.
+It used a frame-based representation,
+with custom schemas: classes contain slots to be filled by other
+objects.
 
     - allows defining and changing the schemas

-structured and unstructured information, moving from

+`Haake et al (1994)` separate the dimensions of "user defines"
+and "system uses" for how object types are embodied in a system. 
+The item-based systems are delocalized over this graph, just
+as their Dolphin system is: the types are an optional extra.
+For items, the types of the *associations* are more important
+than the types of the items themselves.
