This is mostly my fault-- I had thought that having these would spur more 
development, but the fact that Aaron and my office blocks google hangouts has 
made this difficult.  I'll see about distributing my work telecon line-- that 
would allow for the meeting to be recorded as well.
Also, we have had significantly more development this past month than the 
report indicates.  Some features I can think off the top of my head:
1.  Free text search support for mongo db
2.  Additional geo indexing for mongodb
3.  Extensions of examples for both mongo and accumulo backed Rya.
4.   Extensions to query planning to support more complex pre-computed joins

yeah I should be able to. let me check tonight to make sure there's
not some expectation that the IPMC chair do this for podlings.

This is a little brave of an assertion to make :). While what is 
currently published at http://rya.incubator.apache.org is a website, it 
doesn't meet the spirit of a podling website.


e.g. http://beam.incubator.apache.org/

The website should be a great place to tell the world (most importantly, 
prospective community members) who you are and how to get involved.


For example, the website could contain a tutorial which tells people how 
to download, setup and run the quick-start VM for Rya.

Totally agree. Having meetings is fine, but you need to make sure 
everyone has equal opportunity to be a part of it. Personally, I think 
I've missed two that I could have attended because of short-notice.


Re: Rya Geo questions

2016-03-30 Thread Jim Hughes

Hi Dan,

As quick answer, Rya delegates/integrates to GeoMesa in order to provide 
GeoSparql support.


In full disclosure, I'm one of the GeoMesa developers, so I am uncertain 
about all the details about ingesting triples with geo-data into Rya.  
Broadly, geometries would go in as Well-Known Text (so the standard 
geometries type like Point, LineString, Polygon, and their 
multi-geometry versions are supported).


The develop branch of Rya uses GeoMesa 1.2.0*.  You do have to build Rya 
with the 'indexing' profile: |mvn clean install -P indexing|


Shout if there's anything I can do to help from the geo-side of things.

Cheers,

Jim

*  We just released GeoMesa 1.2.1 last week.  You should be able to 
safely bump to the 1.2.1 version if you are building manually.

What's the next step needed for us to have a first release?

We say above that we've had more PRs from non-committers. Are those
mostly fly-by contributions?

April 2016 ASF report - please comment

2016-03-30 Thread Adina Crainiceanu
Hi,

April 6 is the deadline for the April ASF report. Here is the first draft.
Please comment. I said in it that we have a website which is not yet true,
but it will be by the time we submit the report - I started working on it
and I'll submit it for review/publish it early next week after I come from
a conference.

Rya

Rya (pronounced "ree-uh" /rēə/) is a cloud-based RDF triple store that
supports SPARQL queries. Rya is a scalable RDF data management system built
on top of Accumulo. Rya uses novel storage methods, indexing schemes, and
query processing techniques that scale to billions of triples across
multiple nodes. Rya provides fast and easy access to the data through
SPARQL, a conventional query mechanism for RDF data.

Rya has been incubating since 2015-09-18.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Become familiar with the release process and have a first release as
part of the Apache Foundation
  2. Expand the "how to" document to explain the ways new contributors can
become involved in the project, so we increase the size of the community.
  3. Add new committers to the project.

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

No

How has the community developed since the last report?

   * We have a Rya "office hour" teleconference every other week. Users and
developers can ask questions, receive answers, discuss ideas for future
developments. The minutes are sent to the dev@ list
   * We have more PRs from non-committers which are integrated into the
repository
   * There were several ideas from Rya for Google Summer of Code, and a few
students expressed interest; one of them submitted a proposal

How has the project developed since the last report?

  * Created a quick-start VM for users to try out Rya.
  * Created a website for the project.
  * Resolved a handful of issues that users have encountered.
  * Committed features: incremental update for precomputed join indices


Date of last release:

  Not applicable

When were the last committers or PMC members elected?

  Not applicable

Re: [RYA] Troubles with running RYA on LUBM (empty answers)

2016-03-30 Thread Louis Jachiet
Hi everyone involved, just to say that we finally found the problem
(as usual just a few days after mailing everyone… :S).

The problem was that, in our setup (even with the inference engine
activated), the queries are not parsed properly. More specifically, in
a query of the form "SELECT ?a ?b WHERE {...}" if the string between
the last variable and the "WHERE" contains only new line characters
(i.e. matches "\n+") and does not contain spaces (either ' ' or '\t')
then the last variables is discarded.

Therefore:

SELECT ?a
WHERE
{
?a type foo
}

will return a list of empty results while


SELECT ?a 
WHERE
{
?a type foo
}

does not. In the same way:

SELECT ?a ?b
WHERE
{
?a type foo
?b type foo
}

will return a list of the form [a=] while

SELECT ?a ?b 
WHERE
{
?a type foo
?b type foo
}

will return a list of the form [a=;b=]. I don't know
if this qualifies as a bug but list of variables separated from the
'WHERE' only by new line characters are very common, e.g. in
http://swat.cse.lehigh.edu/projects/lubm/queries-sparql.txt

Thanks for everyone for the fast support,
