Subject: [ANN] Apache Jena 2.7.4 / Apache Jena Fuseki 0.2.5
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi there,

There is a new release of Jena, version 2.7.4 together with a release of 
Fuseki, version 0.2.5.

This release passes the final SPARQL 1.1 test suite for query, update 
and protocol.  The release also include substantial improvements in the 
crash recovery of TDB.

There are several areas of deprecated functionality:

1/ Partial, migration support for the W3C submission that lead to SPARQL 
Update is depreacted.  SPARQL 1.1 Update is standard and more 
expressive.  Warnings are logged on using old forms.

2/ Most operations on the low-level bulk update handler are deprecated 
and the remaining operations will be migrated to the Graph interface. 
If this affects you, please let the project know.  It does not affect 
the Jena API.

3/ Any last remaining support for DAML+OIL (e.g. Vocabulary) is 
depreacted in this release and will be removed soon.
