Gerard, SPARQL is an Open Standard for querying relations. Application & Services may or may not be SPARQL-compliant, not the other way around. Would you say "SQL doesn't integrate with anything" for instance? SPARQL and SQL are query languages that target different representations of relations. Both are Open Standards. -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen Founder & CEO OpenLink Software Company Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Personal Weblog 1: http://kidehen.blogspot.com Personal Weblog 2: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter Profile: https://twitter.com/kidehen Google+ Profile: https://plus.google.com/+KingsleyIdehen/about LinkedIn Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/kidehen Personal WebID: http://kingsley.idehen.net/dataspace/person/kidehen#this
