Hi LODers,
just FYI, as some people discussed query federation and commandline-like access to LOD. SPARQLScript[1] (the scripting language SPARQLBot[2] is based on) doesn't have declarative syntax for pattern federation (such as Andy's SERVICE option), but it provides similar possibilities through queries in loops and an ENDPOINT keyword. I used this feature to spot links between CrunchBase and DBPedia. SPARQLBot has a couple of commands that span multiple LOD sources as well. Early/Experimental stuff, but sort-of worky and deployable to hosted web servers (ARC has a SPARQLScript implementation). Cheers, Benji [1] http://arc.semsol.org/docs/v2/sparqlscript [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/semantic-web/2008Sep/0160.html -- Benjamin Nowack http://bnode.org/
