Hi,

Of course we don't expect that the code we write for OverLOD will be 
appreciated by the Marmotta Team,
but we will just let people know it is there if needed :-)

But actually I don't understand your point here about RDF files moving away 
from Linked Data paradigm.
Do you mean that Youtube, Vimeo, RDFa and SPARQL endpoints, which all have 
LDClients, follow linked data paradigm more than
http://sws.geonames.org/2921044/about.rdf

No no, I'm not saying that. Let me try to explain it:

If we take the Linked Data principles [1], ee could say that LDClient extends the 3rd point ("when someone looks up a URI, provide useful information") beyond just "using the standards (RDF*, SPARQL)" by providing new methods to get RDF data out of other formats.

But LDClient does not modify the 1st principle ("use URIs as names for things"). And that's what I referred to because the sentence "They are just like the "linked data" code, except I don't check if the subject of the triple correspond to the URI".

Maybe I got it wrong, and what you actually do is extend the 4th principle ("Include links to other URIs. so that they can discover more things"), which is of course interesting. Just needed to be explained.

BTW, hope you have in mind that if OverLOD produces new LDClient data providers that can be useful for a broader community, please propose them to be included in the main project.

Cheers,
