Hi, I'd like to add lenya support in URIQA4J[1]. URIQA4J is an implementation of Nokia's URIQA [2] and exposes metadata of resources as RDF via HTTP. You could say its WebDAV for metadata.
In URIQA, the client makes a request about a resource via custom HTTP methods MGET, MPUT and MDELETE, to retreive or update the metadata for it. The resource is identified by the request URI and the response is usualy an RDF document. An alternative HTTP interface exists that performs the same stuff via the usual HTTP methods. Anyway; URIQA4J usually exposes POJOs as RDF. A "port" to lenya will be a lot more performant as i will be handling LenyaMetadata (right?) so no need for reflection and other stuff demanded by arbitrary objects. The URIQA requests are intercepted by a servlet filter and processed by an HTTP servlet. Couple of questions: * is the metadata API considered stable? * my understanding is that all i have to do to obtain meta for a given URI is to create a MetaDataManager. How do i do that within the same web context as lenya? Avalon is unknown territory for me and i cant figure out where i should get the ServiceManager and Logger from to pass them in the MetaDataManager constructor.
