Critical typo fix:

A looong time ago, very early LOD days, we (LOD community) talked about 
the importance of dumps with the heuristic you describe in mind (no 
WebID then, but it was clear something would emerge). Unfortunately, 
SPARQL endpoints have become the first point of call re. Linked Data 
even though SPARQL endpoint only == asking for trouble if you *can't* 
self protect the endpoint and re-route agents to dumps.
