I don't have any specifics, but I know folks who have replaced the usual SQL database with an RDF backend. Basically, they think of the RDF Model as the Model of a Model-View-Controller (a popular paradigm in application development). It has earned them a lot in terms of flexibility, as they can just throw anything at the model, it can be extended any direction, but has been painful in terms of performance. I think that it is an interesting direction, and one that I'd like to devote more time to, but there is no time right now. Cheers, Kjetil -- Kjetil Kjernsmo Semantic Web Specialist Opera Software ASA
