------------------------------

Inspired by Yahoo's Pipes, DERI Pipes implement an Open Source generalization
which can also deal with formats such as RDF (RDFa), Microformats and
generic XML.
DERI Pipes can be extended with new add-on operators and can be used
as a Web tool, embedded as a Jar or as a command line tool.
DERI Pipes comes with a rich web GUI where pipes can be graphically
edited, debugged and run.

javascript, python, groovy,
