I'm very impressed
the Jena team has done a lot of work,
even N3 ( ) lists are in
and I couldn't find a problem to help you
this is a great milestone!

Jena 1.6.0
A Java API for manipulating RDF models
Download: http://www.hpl.hp.com/semweb/download.html
Jena mailing list: jena-dev@yahoogroups.com
New features in Jena 1.6.0 include:
+ Support for N3 in reading and writing RDF models.
A new streaming N3 parser provides data input and output in N3.
The inclusion of N3 as a data format for Jena does not provide a rules
interpreter - it is just for RDF input and output in N3 format.
The Jena N3 Writer is a pretty printer for N3. It is a multi-pass writer
that looks at the model first before starting to write N3. As such, it
is not tuned to writing huge RDF models such as databases.
Improvement will be made to the Jena N3 Writer to increase its
"prettiness'".
+ An RDQL query engine that executes the query on a remote
Sesame repository [1]
Changes in <jena>/lib
=====================
One JAR has been removed (rdffilter.jar) as the original Jena RDF/XML
parser has been deprecated after discussion in jena-dev@yahoogroups.com
There are two new JAR files in the lib directory, one for the antlr 2.7.2a2
[2]
runtime used by the N3 parser and one for the Sesame client.

Release Notes
=============
Jena 1.6.0 (October 2002)
RDFAPI: Added support for reading ad writing RDF models as N3.
RDQL: New query engine that calls a Sesame repository.
ARP: Updated IANA language tags - added
numerous sign languages, Scouse (Liverpudlian
dialect), Lojban (an artificial language)
and Enochian (the language of the Angels).
RDFAPI: toString() and getMessage() on RDFException modified to conform
to normal java convention
RDB: Interface for faster load of an entire RDB store into memory
(see ModelRDB.loadAll).
BUGFIXES:
568268 RDFException not conformant
- Case insensitivity of literals with MySQL stores
- Literals lose trailing white space with MySQL stores
[N.B. both RDB MySQL fixes only work for newly created databases]
