Responding to myself, I found this on the matter of inference/reasoning and categories: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3300191/sparql-skosbroader-help Haven't tried that yet, but I hope there is (or there will be) a more concise way of achieving the same. Still wondering if there is *ANY* inference going on in the process of quering DBpedia, and (if any) who and when it is done (when quering in the rdf store, when mapping wikipedia so it all becomes explicit and later there is no need for inference, etc). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
