Tom, Where are the RDF format dumps from Freebase? If they aren't delivering RDF dumps, of what value are these dumps to someone working with Linked Data? Note, I don't think people are expecting to make translations when the initial goal was to reconcile companies leveraging common data representation. Hopefully, you will prove me wrong and unveil their RDF dumps. Note, I've requested these dumps repeatedly from freebase (pre acquisition) and basically stopped asking.
