Hi Jan, The main issue that comes up for me with Listeria is with the 'section by property' feature. There is currently no control over how it deals with multiple values, so a simple list of people sectioned by occupation can lead to very misleading results. Every item appears only once on the list, so someone with two occupations will just end up in one section or the other.
Ideally you need some way to specify how to choose between multiple vales. Some possible options that would help a lot : 1. Just take the most recent value (according to a time qualifier) 2. Just take the highest ranked value 3. Use an arbitrary variable from the sparql query instead of just a property 4. Allow items to appear in multiple sections The idea being that the list-creating user can choose between a set of possible methods for consolidating multiple values. Obviously with some logical default set for when no selection has been made.
