Hi,
Unfortunately I didn’t have the time to continue the work on RDFa parser
☹
Instead, I’ve been working on an experimental HDT parser (not optimized, see
https://github.com/eclipse/rdf4j/issues/232) since I want to use that in an internal project.
The specification of this binary format (http://www.rdfhdt.org/hdt-binary-format/)
is unfortunately not entirely up-to-date (nor complete), but at least I’m able to read a simple file produced by HDT-It.
So that could be a 3.2 experimental feature.
In the (very) long run I’d like to try implementing some kind of an HDT sail, since this indexed format is excellent for Linked Data Fragments.
Best regards
Bart

Subject: [rdf4j-dev] 3.1.1 patch release today, next minor/major release scheduling
I'll be rolling out a 3.1.1 patch release today - there's been a couple of useful bug fixes, and I need an excuse to take the new Jenkins deployment setup for a spin on a proper release.
Regarding release planning, we should start thinking about when we want to do releases 3.2.0
3.2.0 is our next minor release. Current issues scheduled for that release are shown here:
https://github.com/eclipse/rdf4j/milestone/42 . There is not really a theme to this release, but there's several SHACL-related improvements there, as well as an RDFa parser as a feature, and a few
enhancements to the FedX integration. Bart, Havard, and Andreas, could I ask each of you to comment on your personal timelines regarding these items, what you think you are interested in working on in the near future? What, from your perspective, is a reasonable
date for this release (or at least a first milestone)? I typically try to work on an 8-10 week cycle for minor releases, so that would put us mid-April, but it depends on committer availability of course.
Now, a big issue (literally) is issue #1484: RDF* and SPARQL* support. It's currently marked as backward incompatible, and planned against the next major release (4.0.0). However, from what I've seen of the contributions by Pavel and Damyan
sofar, it might be possible to roll this feature out as part of a minor release instead. I haven't ran personal tests myself yet, but I am tempted to make an effort to get it in a state where we can include it in a 3.2.0 release.
PS if there are issues on either the 3.2.0 or the 4.0.0 milestone that you think are no longer as pressing, don't hesitate to remove them from the milestone - I'd rather have some issues in the backlog without a milestone, than having to
keep moving them to the next release every time.
