> My impression from speaking with multiple people at the hackathon is that the authentication requirement is a barrier for people to even use the service in the first place, which defeats the point. Exactly!. Thanks for pointing this out. We should however be wary that those low numbers don't reflect a lack of potential. Once and a while I try the WCQS and I keep being impressed by its potential, only to be disappointed when trying to use it at scale. We should keep reiterating that introducing the authentication to the SPARQL endpoint was a bad design choice.
