[OHM] Linked Data

[Rob H Warren]

There is an instance of Claus Stadler's Sparqlify code in my home directory of the OHM box. I have not tweaked with the mappings file yet, but the stock install should work fine. -rhw

Then by creating some middleman software and a basic API we could provide RDF/JSONLD/... output and give developers a easier life.
