Does sindice utilise the SPARQL related pieces in anyway for internal processing? Does it understand or replicate the slicing mode? <sc:linkedDataPrefix slicing="scbd">http://dblp.rkbexplorer.com/id/</sc:linkedDataPrefix> <sc:sparqlEndpointLocation>http://dblp.rkbexplorer.com/sparql/</sc:sparqlEndpointLocation> If my understanding is correct, this is aimed at a search engine mostly... so it should publish this information when it finds it in a directory of sorts to be most useful. Does sindice republish this information in some form to allow directory based access to the different linked data endpoints/sites?
