Hi,

First of all, the SMW architecture changes sound great. I can't wait to try
out the triple store connection, I might even try it with Open Virtuoso.

Related to that, I have a student who wants to work on the topic "Using wiki
technology for browsing linked data". Our basic idea is it to resolve and to
follow-your-nose-browse URIs using SMW (similar to but more general than
Shortipedia). For that, we would try to use vocabulary/RDF import
functionalities of SMW (thus, also related to RDFIO), e.g., equivalentURI to
represent URIs on the web.

Therefore, my two questions:
* Do the architecture changes also include import functionalities?
* Are there specific architecture changes that we might find useful?

Best,

Benedikt

Related note: SMW 1.6 will bring a number of related changes that are 
needed for better RDF store support. On the one hand, SMW will then 
provide internal functions that RDFIO might find useful (e.g. mapping 
URIs and literals to SMW data objects), on the other hand, SMW will have 
a number of internal changes that will require compatibility updates in 
many extensions (I will update this list about these things as soon as 
they are more definite).

Markus
