Re: Sheaflight Linked Data Browser

It looks great, but I haven't been able to get it to show anything up except for in the map pane, ie, no actual details are in the main pane. When that bug gets fixed I wouldn't mind doing an evaluation of it. Are you planning to release the code for it under an open source license?

My group are also doing some work with SemWeb and Silverlight, but not in the general linked data browser area. It is a shame that Silverlight is limited where native browser linked data plugins are not with respect to cross-site requests, and hence your organisation has to proxy all of the communication.

Cheers,

Peter
