Riese backend insights

Hello!

I published last week a small post about the new backend for Riese
(Eurostat data as linked data), that Wolfgang, Michael and I worked
on.

It is not yet live (well, it is, but behind an overzealous firewall
:-) ), but should be pretty soon. In the meantime, it is quite easy to
set up your own SPARQL end-point for Eurostat data, as the described
software is open-source and available at
http://code.google.com/p/eurostat-rdf/ - the setup steps are in the
blog post.

Cheers!
