That might take another week or so, but for most use cases the elements 
data set should be sufficient, since it contains the most interesting 
information.
I guess the complete dataset will be a real challenge for most triple 
stores - not that they won't be able to store the data, but efficient 
querying will be very challenging and I even have some doubts that it is 
reasonable to use this data with a triple store at all. But we will try 
to make it available anyway ;-)
