The way I see it, PT is the serialization library plus in-memory property storage. Perhaps it could have used serialization internally and serialization archives for loading and saving. As I said before, the real difference could be the loading and saving of some of the properties in the memory storage, without having to load/save them all.
I think you are correct here. This really sounds like it could've (should've?) been implemented using the serialization library and maybe BGL or a generic tree structure (which I would love to be a Boost library). That way you get all of the traversal mechanisms available to the tree (or graph) structure, and all of the archiving techniques available to the serialization lib. -Michael Fawcett
