Ok, I've been buried under some other wokr but will hopefully
get a dump made soon.

There's a method to this madness. The BL data comes as all blank
nodes, there's not a single URI to be found. So what we wanted to do
was to change it as little as possible but still be able to add
annotations. This is the reason for the owl:sameAs that is just 
adding one triple instead of removing several and adding several
new ones. This is also related to deduplication of authors and
publishers which is not an easy problem.
