For what I understand, it's an evolving generalized hypergraph database, 
linking hardware systems, not just software and concept definitions as 
hyperedges, and thus, having something else than itself to map its 
hyperedges is not readily possible, would that be a good way to put it? If 
not, what makes atomese unrepresentable in other languages?

How would things like this be addressed in atomspace? What would be the 
address for OpenCyc in it, or what about the address of IBM's Watson in it? 
A hardware I/O system is also a relation to me.
