Hey John,
> Any discussion which version of smw is expected to have this common
library
There is no discussion about this, as quite some work needs to happen
before we can use Ask in SMW. All I can provide is a guess for the first
release in which SMW might realistically be using this library, which is
SMW 1.11. That is all assuming we manage to stick to our release roadmap
this time.
> I assume it's the same syntax as before, minus subobjects?
This library is a set of entities that represent data and contain some
business logic. It does not define syntax. When SMW adopts this library, it
can retain its current wikitext parsing and formatting code. Though I hope
this code will have been rewritten by that point (without functional
changes), as it is very much legacy code as well.
A library build on top of this new one provides the serialization and
deserialization code for the Ask language that will be used by the Wikidata
project. This could be used in SMWs web API instead, or as addition to, the
wikitext serialization of Ask. A release announcement of this will follow
hopefully soon.
