Folks, It occurred to me earlier -- while reading about Mark Nottingham's sparta, a Python-to-RDF data binding library -- that we haven't yet talked about something like an INSERT command to add one or more triples to a graph. A syntax might look something like: PREFIX foo: <http://www.w3.org/#foo> INSERT #ground triples only... {http://blap/, foo:baz, "1"} {http://blar/, foo:baz, "2"} {http://blip/, foo:baz, "3"} INTO <http://localhost:8801/dawg/model1> (A more complex form could allow triple patterns in the INSERT clause, with values bound from a nested SELECT...) Is this outside our brief? I suspect we could generate use cases to support it, and I can't imagine not adding something like it to an implementation, so maybe we should at least chat about it? Best, Kendall Clark PS--I find I *really* want triple patterns to be delimited by parentheses instead of brackets in BRQL. Is that a done deal?
