Apologies for the delay in responding to your comment of 23 Apr 2005 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2005Apr/0041.html > I have seen the examples in the SPARQL working draft published April the 19th, 2005. > I can see that the syntax looks like DML statements. Yes, that is our approach to objective 4.1 Human-friendly Syntax http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-dawg-uc/#d4.1 The character-based syntax also supports objective 4.10 Addressable Query Results http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-dawg-uc/#d4.10 > Is the group considering representing > SPARQL itself in XML or even RDF? If the conversion to DML statements is important, I'm sure > there could be a simple XSLT conversion SPARQL in some sort of database plug-in or > adapter, sparing SPARQL engines from parsing yet another DML flavour. We have an open issue regarding representing the abstract syntax of SPARQL in XML Schema... http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#xmlAbstractSyntax Please stay tuned to see how it turns out. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E see you at XTech in Amsterdam 24-27 May?
