Re: ANN: Sparallax! - Browse sets of things together (now those on your SPARQL endpoint)

Which aggregate functions are needed?
ARQ has some support (very possibly more than) listed here:
http://jena.sourceforge.net/ARQ/group-by.html

[Andy, are there any more query examples around? I can't seem to get
count(*) working here]

I see there are Graph and Dataset fields on the form - how are they
used? What happens with an endpoint that only has a default, unnamed
graph?

materialized?

(I assume that's not the httpRange-14 extension for dogs :)

What else can be done to the data to make it more Sparallax friendly?

I noticed clues in the form boxes for abstractprop and imageprop, also
the config file -

http://code.google.com/p/freebase-parallax/source/browse/app-parallax/sparallax/scripts/config.xml

Do I take it from the rdfs:Class entry there that it uses RDFS to
decide on collections?

Sorry for the raft of questions, but I recently put LD browser on my
todo list, completely forgetting about Parallax and all the boxes that
already ticks, and now Sparallax... so I want to get an idea of how it
works to avoid reinventing the wheel (in a square shape).

Cheers,
Danny.
