Once you have a few simple questions working, you may want to ask things 
like "Did someone from an organization in the same country present 
something on a sub-topic last year with co-authors?".  But, one thing to 
watch out for is that queries that look reasonable in English can turn out 
to be too complex to write accurately by hand in SQL-like 
languages.  There's an example of this in

On the plus side, it should be straightforward to express those kinds of 
things in a rules language, as in the example

There's an underlying browser-based rules authoring and execution system 
for this at the same site.
