A bit of string manipulation to generate URIs seems quite common. (i.e. not everything can be pushed to manipulation after the template/generation step in practice). e.g. the pre-processing step -- https://github.com/w3c/csvw/blob/gh-pages/examples/simple-weather-observation.md Is that in or out by alternative 2.5? W3C does have a prog-lang-neutral solution for common string manipulation in a subset of the XQuery/XPath Functions and Operators (as used in SPARQL and RIF). It is reasonably close to what programming languages provide. Andy
