Re: Blank nodes as subject maps in R2RML

Thank you for answering. Also, let me answer here again.

I forgot to mention I intended the mapping as default mapping for
table without primary key.

In my oppinion by default direct mapping should generate a blank node
for each row. And I do have mixed feelings about the behavior not
preserving duplicate rows.

Tomasz
