Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for managing source annotation metadata. The metadata management technique may include maintaining a set of metadata, maintaining data/metadata relationships between individual units of the metadata and individual units of the source data, and maintaining metadata/metadata relationships between individual units of the metadata. The metadata/metadata relationships define two or more intersecting search pathways through the metadata that intersect at one or more metadata units belonging to more than one search domain.
