http://esw.w3.org/topic/Rdb2RdfXG/ReqForMappingByOErling
Ashok says that he's getting requests for mappings data other than relational data
<iv_an_ru> XML2RDF can be much more convenient if XSLT is extended with a tag to generage a triple
mappings from flat files and spreadsheets are of interest
there are xml representationsof spreadsheets
GRDDL can be used to map xml to RDF
Orri: GRDDL stylesheets could be generated in an automated way
<iv_an_ru> AndrewE, I developed mapping from spreadsheets, flat files an LDAP to relational, so it was possible to run stupid SQLs against non-relational data.
