So for me one very interesting aspect of this is being able to deal with a variety of data licensing. For Chem2Bio2RDF we generally restricted ourselves to very open sets, but there are many useful datasets which are subscription only, or, for example, free to academia but subscription for industry. I think being able to have subsets of RDF in a combined repository which can be "unlocked" with a license would be useful, and it strikes me this is a provenance / authorization thing?
