RE: Vapour 2.0, a Linked Data and RDF vocabularies validator

Congratulations guys, this is a really cool service and very useful for anyone publishing Linked Data. Really pleased to see it reaching a public release :D

If anyone wants any background, I should add that Diego, Sergio and Ivan Frade had a paper about Vapour at the Scripting for the Semantic Web workshop at ESWC2008:
