Sergey Skovorodkin is working on a dbpedia<->wikidata mapping as a GsoC for
DBpedia this year
https://github.com/dbpedia/extraction-framework/wiki/GSoC-2014-Progress-Sergey-Skovorodkin

I'm CCing him to see if he can report the status or if he might need help
with our properties, maybe we are missing some or need to clarify some
others. Sometimes we are using qualifiers to extend properties instead of
creating new ones.

Cheers,
Micru
