Hi All, Apologies if this is a FAQ. At work we have an ldap directory containing a few 10000s of employee entries. I've recently installed a servlet to provide rdf foaf descriptions of these people on demand. The URI of each person is currently of the form e.g. http://example.com/2004/01/people#dawesp I prefer hash URIs on the basis that they look nicer to me. However, I'd like a to provide a description lookup service at the end of the URI. I can see how to do this with URIQA MGET. I can also see how to do this easily with HTTP GET on slash uris - a simple "303 see other" to the servlet to generate the appropriate RDF description. But with HTTP GET on hash URIs (if I understand correctly) the hash doesn't necessarily get to the server, so what's the best way to do this? I don't really want to serve a page with everyone on it (~gigabyte of data) Does this prohibit hash uris for this type of service? Any help would be much appreciated, Many thanks, Phil
