I just added some code in SPARQLEvaluate.py to make a call to my
evaluation method:

#    queryExec = Execute(graph, query.prolog)
#    res = queryExec.query(query.query.whereClause.parsedGraphPattern)

The execute class contains a recursive method for creating the
bindings depending on the graph pattern...but I didn't get that far
there yet.

[1] looks very interesting. So a simple start would include to make
unit-tests for the examples in sec. X.1.2 (including simpler tests as
well...). The next step is to use the existing bison parse tree and
re-compose/simplify it using the algorithm provided in [1]. I will
look into the code again to make sure I understand what is there
already. How do we create a new dev. branch?

Cheers,
Mikael
