[Mulgara-dev] Query

Hi All,

Because SPARQL has introduced several different types of query, I'm
having to create some convoluted names in the API to get around the
fact that our Select queries have the name Query.

For the sake of clarity, I'd like to create a new interface called
Query, and to rename the existing Query to SelectQuery. This is an
easy refactor, but it could get really annoying for everyone currently
using this class directly. I'm particularly concerned about Sesame, as
they have the only external code that I know of that uses this class.

Another option is to create a new Query interface in another package,
but I'm loathe to do this.

Does anyone have any opinions about this please?

Thanks,
Paul
