We just have new Cartridges (Extractor and Meta). The Extractors are
Open Source ( versions 5 & 6) while the Meta Cartridges are commercial only.

Yes, re. SPARQL-GEO. Thus, the fundamental differentiators between the
Open Source and Commercial Editions come down to:
1. Sponger's Meta Cartridges -- these embellish the basic Extractor
Cartridge generated graphs by performing LOD Cloud (and other Linked
Data Space) lookups and joins
2. SPARQL-GEO & GeoSpatial indexing in general (so it applies to SQL
engine also)
3. Virtual Database Functionality -- RDF Views over ODBC and JDBC
accessible data sources
4. Replication
5. Clustering & High Availability.
