RDF and free software hacking

As tempting as it was to call this posting Not Blogging the Company, this isn’t about something I did for my employer, so instead I’ve borrowed Steve Jobs’ famous phrase. On Sunday 30th April I announced the release of Rasqal 0.9.12 which has a lot of internal changes but externally it’s mainly for the following:

• Added JSON output based on the Serializing SPARQL Query Results in JSON draft
• Added query writer so you can use Rasqal to turn RDQL into SPARQL:

  roqet -q -i rdql -d sparql -n query.rdql > query.sparql
  

• Updated to SPARQL Query Language for RDF W3C Candidate Rec, 6 April 2006 now accepting all SPARQL syntax (but not executing it, OPTIONAL and UNION still have problems)

This can as usual be tried out in the Rasqal RDF query demo

What is new beyond the original announcement is that I’ve got the Redhat Fedora Core 5 RPMs built and the Debian debs available from the Redland download site thanks to my recently restored working Xen 3.0 virtual machine server (5 Linux VMs - Fedora Core 5; Ubuntu Hoary, Breezy, Dapper; Gentoo).
