-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Rasqal RDF Query Library 0.9.15 http://librdf.org/rasqal/ Rasqal is a free software / Open Source C library that provides querying of Resource Description Framework (RDF) with multiple query languages syntaxes, query construction by API and execution of queries returning results as bindings, boolean, RDF graphs/triples or syntaxes. It supports the SPARQL and RDQL query languages. Rasqal is designed to work closely with the Redland[1] RDF library and the Raptor[2] RDF parsing and serializing library but is entirely separate from both. Rasqal is beta quality: mostly working but the API is still changing. It is a portable library and has been tested on multiple POSIX systems and architectures. Rasqal has no known memory leaks. The main changes in this version since the last release 2007-04-22 are: * Many updates for supporting W3C SPARQL Proposed Recommendation. Passes over 92% of the DAWG SPARQL Test Suite. * Many query engine improvements. * Substantial improvements to datatypes support and evaluation. * Many improvements and fixes for use in low-memory situations * Several new APIs were added including a new XSD decimal class * Fixed issues: #0000190, #0000191, #0000193, #0000196, #0000197, #0000198, #0000199, #0000200, #0000201, #0000203, #0000204, #0000219, #0000220, #0000221, #0000225, #0000234, #0000235 and #0000236 For full details see the Rasqal 0.9.15 release notes at http://librdf.org/rasqal/RELEASE.html#rel0_9_15 ********************************************************** WARNING: ABI AND API CHANGE in the next release. - Rasqal 0.9.16 will be incompatible with 0.9.15. - The shared library major soname will change from 0 to 1 - See http://librdf.org/rasqal/RELEASE.html#rel0_9_15 for more information. ********************************************************** Rasqal 0.9.15 requires Raptor 1.4.16[2] or newer to provide RDF, web, XML and URI support. Optional requirements include a POSIX regular expression library such as PCRE or one built into the C library to handle regex matching and a multi-precision decimal library such as GNU MP or MPFR. Binary deb packages for Debian unstable will be made available shortly via the standard debian archive and download.librdf.org.
