Re: our pending collections issue. Not sure if anything will happen with RSS 1.1, but this plus the OWL issue strike me as v. compelling use cases.

A question I've been trying to find an answer to for the past couple days. It seems that Sparql has not built in support for Collections: even the RSS 1.0 stuff is pretty weak in that the results (from RDQL at least) are returned in no particular order (or at least, can be). In order for Collections to work properly, there needs to be built in support for them at the query language level, and I haven't seen anything in SPARQL that leads me to believe this is the case. I could be missing something major, but I just haven't seen it. There is: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/issues#accessingCollections But there's no results in the email archives search, so I'm not sure on status. -- Christopher Schmidt
