Guys, a simple question. What happens if the column name contains non basic ASCII characters? Ie, accented Latin, Russian, Chinese...? For Direct Mapping: We have to decide whether we use IRIs or whether the default is to convert IRIs into URIs according to the specs. My instinct would be to generate IRIs, but I am not sure the tooling around us is good enough. For R2RML: I am not familiar enough with SQL to know whether its usage to generate a virtual table covers all the possibilities. Ie, if I want to convert into URI, is it a trivial thing to do? Is it worth having some shorthands like the templates? This may not be a serious issue. But it is certaintly worth writing it down somewhere in the documents Ivan ---- Ivan Herman Tel:+31 641044153 http://www.ivan-herman.net
