Thanks Etienne.  Is there a reason it's not in the git repository with
the rest of the parsers?  RDF to BibJSON seems like a generally useful
tool.  I know that everyone's flavor of bibliographic RDF is going to
be different for the moment, but a BNB parser could form the basis of
a DNB parser and, over time, a more generalized RDF parser.
