Re: YAGO knowledge base now open source

Hi,

That's good news.  I just tried to access a random concept (Costa Rica)
using the URL:

http://yago-knowledge.org/resource/Costa_Rica

This redirected to:

http://lod.openlinksw.com/describe/?uri=http://yago-knowledge.org/resource/Costa_Rica

and gave me a 'web site under maintenance' response.  Yet the sample
queries seem to be working quite happily.  Is this a temporary glitch?

Thanks,

Richard
