Re: Facebook Linked Data

But then I would say the server should at least reply with a 30x redirect ;-)

This is done to comply with the httpRange-14 issue (i.e., you can't retrieve a person through HTTP but you can retrieve a document _about_ a person through HTTP). Since a person and a document about a person are different entities, they should have different URIs.

Which is bad in our case because we filter out triples that do not fulfill this condition to avoid importing "invalid" data.
