Re: Public SPARQL endpoints for generic usage

Hi all,


I was playing around with the beginnings of a service.

classes and properties from FOAF, SIOC, etc.

Re ARC2 todo list and RAP, I agree this issue will eventually get solved in
PHP, but what I'm more interested in is a generic answer to the generic
situation where there is no way to run SPARQL locally. Imagine running
rasqal on your phone... Has anyone tried?

I should have mentioned triplr <http://triplr.org/> as another public SPARQL
endpoint.

I guess as long as nobody's complaining we can just keep using these public
endpoints... :)
