~                   Raptor RDF Parser Library 1.4.17
~                      http://librdf.org/raptor/

Raptor is a free software / Open Source C library that provides a set
of Resource Description Framework (RDF) parsers and serializers that
both generate RDF triples by parsing syntaxes and serialize RDF
triples into a syntax.  It is a mature, portable and high performance
library that works across many systems and architectures.

It parses the following syntax into RDF triples:
~  RDF/XML, N-Triples, TRiG, Turtle, GRDDL (including microformats
~  hCard and hCal) and RSS tag soup for RSSes, Atom 0.3 and Atom 1.0.
and serializes RDF triples into the following syntaxes:
~  RDF/XML, RDF/XML abbreviated, RDF/XML XMP, N-Triples,
~  Atom 1.0, RSS 1.0, Graphviz DOT, Turtle and JSON.

The main changes in this version since the last release 2007-09-30 are:
~  * Added two new JSON serializers: resource-centric 'json' (Talis' RDF/JSON)
~    and triple-centric 'json-triples' based on SPARQL results in JSON
~  * Added a new public XML SAX2 API class
~  * Added a new error handling structure
~  * Made the I/O Stream class support reading
~  * Added several new API methods.
~  * Made several fixes, portability and resilience improvements.
~  * Fixed reported issues: 0000252 and 0000245

The JSON serializers are demonstrated in Triplr http://triplr.org/
