Hi Andy,

> What's the problem with using WITH?


The problem is that we are want to switch our default dataset from one
using a single unnamed graph as the default graph to one using two named
graphs as the default graph. We have figured out how to do the data part of
the switch but we already have a lot of SPARQL update queries in various
places which we wanted to avoid having to modify. I was hoping that the
using-named-graph-uri query parameter would just do this - but I understand
from your explanation and re-reading the spec that it only affects the
WHERE clause. This seems slightly odd as the spec implies to me it is an
alternative to WITH...

"""
The RDF Dataset for an update operation may be specified either in the
operation string itself using the USING,USING NAMED, and/or WITH keywords,
or it may be specified via the using-graph-uri and using-named-graph-uri
 parameters.

"""

..but I guess it just cannot be used with a WITH.

Cheers
Rob
