	       Redland RDF Application Framework 1.0.4
			 http://librdf.org/


Redland is a C library that provides a high-level interface for the
Resource Description Framework (RDF) allowing the RDF graph to be
parsed, serialized, stored, queried and manipulated.  It is a mature,
and portable library that works across many POSIX systems (Unix,
GNU/Linux, BSDs, OSX, cygwin), win32 and others.

Redland implements each of the RDF concepts in its own class via an
object based API, reflected into the other language APIs - C#, Java,
Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby and Tcl provided by the Redland Bindings[1].
Many of the classes implementations for parsers and triple stores
are built as modules that can be added or removed as required.

The changes in this version are:
 * Updated to use [1]Rasqal 0.9.12 to update to SPARQL 2006-04-06 and JSON
results
 * Updated to use [2]Raptor 1.4.9 with many improvements
 * Fixes for several crashes in parsing and serializing.

Upgrading is recommended due to the crash fixes.

See the detailed 1.0.4 release notes at
  http://librdf.org/RELEASE.html#rel1_0_4
for full information on all the changes.
