I have made a series of updates to the SPARQL language document:
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/rq23/
Most notable:
A/ Section 6: More Pattern Matching – Alternatives
Text added that uses UNION to handle alternatives, having looked through the
email traffic on the comments list, on this list and on what various systems do
about it. I had a brief conversation with Steve before travelled to let him
know I would be doing this.
B/ Section 3 : renamed to "Working with RDF Literals"
3.1 Matching RDF Literals
3.2 Constraining Values (the previous section 3).
Section 3.1 will enable text to be moved out of section 12: section 12 can then
be descriptive of the F&O operators/functions we will have.
C/ Results from SELECT are sets (but implementations may include duplicates
unless DISTINCT).
D/ triple pattern grouping is now {braces} (except for [] optionals)
E/ ASK examples done: one that asnwers "yes" and one that answers "no"
