    <td colspan="2"><p>
	I think the API for creating <strong>SparqlVariables</strong> and <strong>VariablePatterns</strong> is inconsistent.</p>
<p>
	Calling <strong>new SparqlVariable(string)</strong> requires that the name has the leading question mark removed. However the <strong>new VariablePattern(string)&nbsp;</strong>requires the variable to have the question mark included.</p>
<p>
	I think this is counterintuitive. Is there a reason for such design?</p>
<p>
	I would suggest unifying the API</p></td>
