I prefer DROP/CLEAR ALL does everything, including the default graph. "ALL" implies that to me. If I really want to leave the named graph, and CLEAR the others I can do that with: DELETE WHERE { GRAPH ?g { ?x ?y ?z } } Admittedly there's no DROP equivalent, for graphs that don't do empty graph culling, but that's well into corner cases AFAIC. Otherwise, you could add a "GRAPH *" like syntax, meaning all named graphs, but I predict that users would confuse GRAPH * and ALL a lot. - Steve -- Steve Harris, CTO, Garlik Limited 1-3 Halford Road, Richmond, TW10 6AW, UK +44 20 8439 8203 http://www.garlik.com/ Registered in England and Wales 535 7233 VAT # 849 0517 11 Registered office: Thames House, Portsmouth Road, Esher, Surrey, KT10 9AD
