Re: Direct Mapping

Hi all

I've just read the whole thread of the direct mapping subject, and I 
totally agree with Richard.
Also, as Alexander pointed out in his previous email "there are 
advantages of being able to automatically generate a default R2RML 
mapping from the RDB schema. However, this is procedural mechanism which 
cannot be part of the specification of the R2RML (declarative) language. 
We as a WG can publish a separate recommendation / standard of how to do 
this".

I think the same as Richard.
We can include an appendix for describing the procedure of creating the 
R2RML file for the direct graph generation.
