The "Testing Values" section of the Apache Jena "SPARQL Tutorial - Filters" page (http://jena.apache.org/tutorials/sparql_filters.html) does not produce the expected results.
I made sure to pull the example files from the site to ensure the issue was not due to typos in transcription: $ wget "http://jena.apache.org/tutorials/sparql_data/vc-db-2.rdf"; --2012-09-04 10:47:20-- http://jena.apache.org/tutorials/sparql_data/vc-db-2.rdf Resolving jena.apache.org... 140.211.11.131, 192.87.106.229, 2001:610:1:80bc:192:87:106:229 Connecting to jena.apache.org|140.211.11.131|:80... connected.
