Recently, a call was made for the hypertext community to “return to its roots” by re-exploring our interdisciplinary nature, renewing the areas of common interest with the diverse set of researchers that comprise this community. In this paper, we lay out a set of research questions inspired by several research threads that were active in prior iterations of the hypertext community, but have recently slipped from our focus. The developments of the intervening years have in many cases added nuance and depth to these open questions, potentially making them of renewed interest to the present community. We present these questions through the lens of a maximalist vision that places structure front and center of our model of the world, relegating data to second-class status. We follow the implications of this vision to recover a set of open questions that once occupied, and may once again occupy, a large portion of the interest of the hypertext community.
