You may like to list the Internet Business Logic system at www.reengineeringllc.com .

It supports the writing and running of business rules in open vocabulary English, using a browser.  In a sense, it adds application semantics to data semantics.   SQL is generated automatically when needed.  Non-commercial use is free.

An example is

a presentation is at

http://www.reengineeringllc.com/Internet_Business_Logic_e-Government_Presentation.pdf

and the system itself is live, on line.

Perhaps you could list it under a new "programming language" heading called "rules in English" .  It should hopefully be of interest as context to folks reading your list, particularly for very rapid prototyping of reasoning tasks.

Hi all,

in preparation for a workshop about the usage of scripting languages in the
context of the Semantic Web (http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2005/), we
are collecting links to Semantic Web toolkits for different programming
languages.

Currently we have got C, Haskell, Java, Lisp, .Net, Perl, PHP, Prolog and
Python.

For each toolkit, we evaluate:
+ which features are offered (APIs, query languages, storage, reasoning
support),
+ the strength of the development effort (number of developers involved,
latest release),
+ the activity level of the toolkit's user community (number of downloads,
active mailing list).

Our current list is found at
http://www.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/toolkits/

Do you know about any other toolkits?
Maybe also for languages that we have missed? We didn't find toolkits for
Ruby, Javascript, ActionScript and ColdFusion yet. Is there no Semantic Web
support for these languages?

All hints are highly appreciated.

Chris
