Re: RDF Template

Hi Simon,

In Sesame there is the ValueFactory interface for creating Literals, 
URI, ... .
Are you suggesting to implement a custom ValueFactory that will take 
care of substituting the variables ? Although this is an interesting 
idea, I prefer to have the template in a file, so that it is easy to 
provide a new template without touching the code.

Cheers,
