Yes, currently we are only extracting data and serve it on the Web. > This would be a nice extension since at least for the BBC case there > is structured data to be had in RDF from the other end of the link > (via either .rdf or conneg I think).

Yes, providing applications with access to the data on both sides of the link is clearly the goal, but I wonder whether this is a job for DBpedia or a job for a Semantic Web search engine like Sindice, SWSE or Falcons which crawls data from the Web and should provide apps with access to aggregated (maybe even merged and fused) data? For DBpedia our goal is to provide clean Wikipedia data and clean links pointing at other data sources. In the context of other projects, I hope to have the chance to work more on all these exciting aggregation, merging, fusion, information quality and trust problems next year :-) > Somewhat similar: ISBN extraction.

Still very valuable :-) As we are currently mostly doing infobox extraction we miss most of them. We might next year move to extracting all templates from a Wikipedia article and then might hopefully get more of them.
