Les Chiens, I'm relieved (!) to say that I've finally got a protocol draft that I'm willing to publicly share, in the event anyone's still interested. You can find it at http://monkeyfist.com/kendall/sparql-protocol/ but that should be considered a temporary location, I suspect. If the primary consideration was that it fit on one sheet of paper, then either I was the wrong person to work on this or it's just more complex than that. Or both. :> I worked really hard to describe an abstract protocol that could be realized in the Unix command-line environment, SOAP, HTTP, BEEP, and other diverse environments, and that took a great deal of time. I biased that abstract description in favor of HTTP, when things were otherwise tricky, but I hope not too much. It probably doesn't need to be said, but this is a draft, it's full of warts, bugs, and outright errors. I will continue to work on it pretty much all the time, which means now that I'm sharing it, I'll add some date/time/RCS-markers, so that changes are easier to detect. I hope that it helps, at the very least, focus our discussion and move us toward CR status with all deliberate speed. Best, Kendall Clark -- Sometimes it's appropriate, even patriotic, to be ashamed of your country. -- James Howard Kunstler
