Hey Brand: (01)
I understand the video's not ready yet, but should show up here [1] when
ready. (02)
BTW - for those interested in the LOD existential question, I wanted to
suggest the strictest interpretation should follow from the four steps
or rules in the following page of design issues. [2] (03)
Note that step three prescribes the use of standards, then identifies
two standards (RDF*, SPARQL). Not sure how to interpret the rather loose
syntax of the page. (04)
