		   Raptor RDF Parser Toolkit 0.9.10
	     http://www.redland.opensource.ac.uk/raptor/

               Supported by EU IST project SWAD-Europe

Raptor is a C library that provides parsers for the RDF/XML and
N-Triples syntaxes returning triples.  It was designed to work
closely with the Redland RDF library (RDF Parser Toolkit for Redland
- Raptor) but is fully separate.  It is free software / Open Source,
has no memory leaks so far and is pretty fast.

This is a minor bugfix release (synchronising with Redland 0.9.12 release).
Raptor is a stable library, with some known conformance issues.

Summary of changes:

  * Added parser lax / strict modes. lax is the default.
  * rdf:bagID now generates a warning in lax mode, an error in strict
  * Added raptor_www_no_www_library_init_finish to allow disabling of WWW
    library startup/shutdown.
  * Added raptor_parse_abort to abort parsing inside a callback.
  * Added a GTK GUI example program grapper
    Other minor bug fixes.

The release consists of the full sources, RPM binaries and source RPM
packages for RedHat Linux 9.  These are also available from the
Redland SourceForge mirror site at
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/librdf/

The main web site lets you browse and check out the latest version of
the sources in CVS and use Raptor in various demos (as part of Redland).

I post updates about Redland and Raptor to the redland-dev list
which is one of the lists you can join from the list page at
