I'd certainly like the option of both SPARQL *and* iTQL.

theMulgara-SPARQLimplementation?


Hi Ben, Rune, and other folks using Mulgara with Fedora,

Note that you can today run SPARQL queries directly against Mulgara when
it's configured to run in non-embedded ("remote") mode.  Of course, it's
also nice for people/apps to be able to count on a repository endpoint
that's SPARQL-aware, even if it's just passing queries through to Mulgara
(whether embedded or not).

Eddie Shin and I have been discussing this a bit as well.  Where we left it
last was the recognition that we'd both like to eventually rid Fedora of
it's use of Trippi (one big reason: Trippi hides Mulgara's transaction
semantics).  But right now, risearch (the servlet that responds to RI
queries in various languages) is actually implemented as part of
trippi-core.  So we'd effectively need a replacement for risearch.  And
there are some unresolved questions there.  For example, do we just replace
it with a SPARQL endpoint?  If so, what about people who currently depend on
iTQL-only features?  Or those who only need/want SPO support?  Your
reactions to these questions are very welcome.

On the other hand, due to the way risearch works, an incremental change to
the trippi-mulgara package could enable this off the bat. Any takers?...see
http://trippi.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/trippi/trunk/src/java/org/trippi/im
pl/mulgara/
and respond to the fedora-commons-developers list if interested...

Thanks,
Chris
