RDFa in RDFLib

I was chatting with Chimezie over at #swig about the RDFa parser I’ve written and decided that it would be a good thing to add it to RDFLib. I really don’t know too much about the project, but it seems like it’s quickly becoming the center of all things python+rdf. I see there stuff from sbp, aaron, mnot, chimezie, ivan and others. Anyways, I added an assertion to my FOAF file, sent them a password hash, a username and in no time I had an svn account. A lot easier than when I joined Apache and I definitely didn’t have to fax a CLA and wait a couple of weeks until someoned picked up my faxed agreement. I’m not sure how much time I’ll have, but I rather give it a more permanent home to the parser and I know those guys can put it to good use. I didn’t even know that Ivan had first written a SPARQL implementation, much worse he had “donated” it to RDFLib. Do I live under a rock? Conclusion, RDFa in RDFLib + SPARQL – Native Libraries = More Power to SW. I just want to ask Chimezie a couple of questions, but I have now working on my machine the following: from rdflib import Graph store = Graph() store.load("http://ben.adida.net/card", format="rdfa") print store.serialize(format="pretty-xml") Sweet.
