ANNOUNCE: Beta 2 release of RDF Gateway

Intellidimension is pleased to announce that the 2nd Beta of RDF Gateway has
been released as is available for download at
http://www.intellidimension.com/RDFGateway/beta2/

RDF Gateway is a scaleable query and inference server for Windows NT and
2000.
Features include:
o RDFQL -  a SQL-like query language with inference rules
o Data services for connecting to RDF (including DAML), XML, and HTML
content
o A data service API for integrating data from external data sources
o Federated queries against multiple data sources
o Transactions
o Users/Roles
o In-memory operation with persistence via optional backend SQL database
o Stored-procedures
o A scriptable crawling service for scheduled harvesting of data
o Unicode support
o Client tools

New features in Beta 2:
o Management Console -- configure users, setup databases, schedule crawl
jobs, etc. through a graphical interface (MMC snap-in).
o Views -- named queries that project a relational schema onto an RDF
database. OLEDB client drivers use views to produce a relational schema for
client applications. This allows RDF Server to work with many applications
designed to work with relational databases by providing them with a fixed
schema.
o Scriptable  Dataservice -- allows you to create an RDF interface to an
application, website, or database using your scripting language of choice.
o Misc. bug fixes and performance enhancements
