Hi all, as much as I remember we did so far only discuss the mapping from RDB to RDF. In certain settings it might, however, also make sense to be able to update the RDB using SPARUL [1]. This might of course be pretty difficult and not even possible in the general case. In the DB community there is quite some work about updateable views and some DBMS even support them - if our mapping would be able to distinguish between mappings which represent updateable views and those which don't we would get (partial) updateability for free. Maybe this is to much to be discussed now in the XG or to be added as a requirement to the recommendation (or shall we?) - but probably worth keeping in mind once a WG was chartered. Have a nice weekend everybody, Sören [1] http://jena.hpl.hp.com/~afs/SPARQL-Update.html
