I also feel this as relevant, also because most people in this WG  
already got some RDF query language implemented in a way or the other,  
and it would be useful to compare them; as well as check strengths and  
weakness. This would rather be a bottom-up approach to our  
specification, which could be usefully combined with the top-down  
approach of use-cases+requirements collections we are already doing.

http://www.w3.org/2003/03/rdfqr-tests/summary.html

it might be a useful reference for a bottom-up approach to help out in  
the design of our work

Concerning a Web form for listing use-cases, requirements and related  
implementations I could offer a modified/extended version of old work  
done from me and Andy

http://rdfstore.sourceforge.net/2002/06/24/rdf-query/query-use- 
cases.html

where we would need to define a more precise vocabulary to describe our  
use-cases and link them to implementations and move it somewhere close  
to W3C pages perhaps - which can then be linked later to real test data  
as Jos reported.
