But From Andy and Chime's preferences, I'm guessing I'm just not looking at it the right way, so can anyone help me out? Agreed. "RDF Dataset ... Protocol" reads like backup/restore to me. For me it's "SPARQL 1.1" +1 (for branding reasons) "Management" +1 (that's what it does) "Graph" +1 (ditto) "RDF Dataset" -1 (confusing) everything else +0 - 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
