Hi Jeremy, a side comment and not our main topic now, but I have been thinking a little bit more about the query language. Maybe I should change the syntax and move the query patterns from statement level to graph level and closer to the TriG syntax. Example: Select all persons which have been borne before 1970, using only statements from authors I trust. SELECT ?y WHERE ?x (?y rdf:type ex:Person . ?y ex:birthyear ?z) null (?x saidby ?a) null (ex:Me trusts ?a) AND ?z < "1970" and allow the abbreviation of graph names - as you proposed - if they don't matter, like in the following version of the query SELECT ?y WHERE ?x (?y rdf:type ex:Person . ?y ex:birthyear ?z) (?x saidby ?a) (ex:Me trusts ?a) AND ?z < "1970" Both only syntactical changes but the queries look more like named graphs :-) Chris -- GMX ProMail (250 MB Mailbox, 50 FreeSMS, Virenschutz, 2,99 EUR/Monat...) jetzt 3 Monate GRATIS + 3x DER SPIEGEL +++ http://www.gmx.net/derspiegel +++Received on Monday, 23 February 2004 09:51:29 UTC
