[redland-dev] ANNOUNCEMENT: Raptor RDF Parser Toolkit 1.4.9

[Dave Beckett]

                   Raptor RDF Parser Toolkit 1.4.9
                      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
generate RDF triples by parsing syntaxes or serialize RDF triples
into a syntax.

It parses the following syntax into RDF triples:
  RDF/XML, N-Triples, Turtle, GRDDL and RSS tag soup for many
  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 and RSS 1.0.

Raptor is designed to work closely with the Redland RDF library but
is fully separate.  It is a mature, portable and high performance
library that works across many systems and architectures.  Raptor has
no known memory leaks.

The main changes in this version since the last release 2005-01-03 are:

 * Raptor Tutorial added covering parsing and serializing with examples
 * Raptor Reference Manual now covers 100% of the public API
 * rapper can now pretty-print RDF using namespaces as hints
 * Turtle parser gains boolean literals
 * Requests for content now send appropriate Accept: headers
 * No longer requires libxml for rss-tag-soup parser
 * Various Win32 fixes and VC build files updates (John Barstow)
