Whether we want it or not, most of the data we publish (all of it, apart from specific cases e.g. review) is provided by wrappers of some sort, e.g. Virtuoso, D2R, P2R, web services wrapper etc. Hence, it makes not sense trying to distinguish datasets on the basis they're published through a "wrapper" or not. Within LOD, we only segregate datasets for inclusion in the diagram on the basis they are published according to linked data principles. The stats I sent reflect just that: some stats about the datasets currently in the diagram. The origin of the data shouldn't matter. The fact that it is published according to linked data principles and linked to at least one dataset in the cloud should matter. > > > Giovanni >
