We should not follow the abuse of language that has arisen from subsuming three sublanguages (a schema definition language, a data manipulation/change language, and a query language) under the "query language" SQL. Not everything is a query! E.g., in some DBMS products, such as Microsoft Access, a CREATE TABLE statement is called a "data definition query", which sounds very funny. Clearly, what you refer to by "push" are not (data retrieval) queries in the propor sense, but change operations/requests, so they should not be covered in the RDF query WG. -Gerd --------------------------------------- Gerd Wagner http://tmitwww.tm.tue.nl/staff/gwagner/ Dep.
