Hi,
I was looking at the Jena IRI module, the packaging and if there
is anything missing for a release, etc.

I noticed that we did not have a place for the IRI documentation
on the new Jena website (see: http://jena.sourceforge.net/iri/).
A doc/ directory is currently included in the IRI zip file.

Do we want to continue to do that or are we happy to migrate that
documentation on-line? If there is agreement on the fact that we
need an IRI item in the Documentation menu (I would put it after
I/O linking to http://i.a.o/jena/documentation/iri/index.html),
I'll move the content there.

Do you know if someone else is using the IRI module? I imagine
others might find it useful, but I am not aware of anyone currently
using it (independently from Jena).

The zip file is missing the DEPENDENCIES file, or maybe that is
not necessary. The DEPENDENCIES file is also included in the
jar file, in the META-INF directory, but that is the one
automatically generated (which is different from the one we have
manually edited). It's all ok, I did not find a way to tell
Maven to use the one we provide, or ideally to use a template
we provide where Maven can add the generated bit.

Finally, do we really need/want an IRI zip file?

Other than these minor things (and perhaps a general clean up
on the IRI source tree, which we can always do later and do not
cause problems to the files we generate), I do not see anything
left for the IRI module.

None of these things is blocking an IRI release.

ARQ is next.

Paolo
