While everybody was busy stocking food and drink, the Sesame developers apparently have been at it in overdrive, managing to release the final release of Sesame 2.0 just in time for Christmas. From the openRDF.org announcement:
"Thanks to an overwhelming number of people that have tested the previous release candidates and reported any issues that surfaced, we can now proudly present Sesame, version 2.0!
After the second release candidate, only one serious issue was reported and fixed. We found and fixed some minor, non-critical issues ourselves and made some small improvements here and there, mostly related to HTTP communication and OpenRDF Workbench. All in all, we think the code is now sufficiently tested to call it 2.0-final.
The development focus will now shift to performance and scalability improvements. An RDBMS-based Sail implementation is currently under development and the first results look very promising. The performance of the native- and memory stores will also be improved. As there hasn't been put a lot of effort into this so far, we expect to achieve good results here."
I just want to take the opportunity to congratulate the people at Aduna with this important milestone! Great job, and thanks!
