Ruby SPARQL gem 1.1.0 pre-release

I've pushed up a pre-release of the forthcoming SPARQL 1.1 gem. As it is a pre-release, to install it using rubygems, you need to include the --pre option:

    gem install sparql --pre

My intention is to release the 1.1 gem after early adopters have had a chance to wring it out a bit more.

As the release number implies, this is a fairly completely functional implementation of SPARQL 1.1 Query. The notable exception is for Property Paths, which are not supported yet. I intend to get there too, but this is a significantly more difficult thing to implement, so that would be delayed until a subsequent release, along with SPARQL Update, Federated Queries, Entailment regimes and the Graph Store protocol.

In particular, the following new features are added from SPARQL 1.1:

	• Functions
	• BIND
	• GROUP BY
	• Aggregates
	• Subqueries
	• Inline Data
	• Exists
	• Negation

Bug reports either to this list, or preferably on the project issue tracker: https://github.com/ruby-rdf/sparql/issues
