Stephen, all,

Recently on users@ there was a question about the s-* in java. That got me thinking about an interface to pull together all SPARQL operations into one application-facing place. We have jena-jdbc, and jena-client already - this is my sketch take.

[1] RDFConnection

Currently, it's a sketch-for-discussion; it's a bit DatasetAccessor-like + SPARQL query + SPARQL Update. And some whole-dataset-REST-ish operations (that Fuseki happens to support). It's a chance to redo things a bit.

RDFConnection uses the existing SPARQL+RDF classes and abstractions in ARQ, not strings, [*] rather than putting all app-visible clases in one package.

Adding an equivalent of DatabaseClient to represent one place would be good - and add the admin operations, for Fuseki at least. Also, a streaming load possibility.

Comments?
Specific use cases?

(multi-operation transactions ... later!)

[*] You can use strings as well - that's the way to get arbitrary non-standard extensions through.
