Rdf & Ruby on Rails
Active RDF is a simple library that maps your ruby objects to the RDF data model and vice versa. It uses the Redland Ruby bindings, but hides the tedious work of dealing with triples, by mapping them straight to the ruby object model. The equivalent of JDO for Ruby, but much simpler. Way to go!
Note: I don't have experience with Ruby On Rails, but welcome the competition. :-) And apparently it works real well on Sun Servers too.
Update:
- Andrew Newman has some more links on this story.
- Tim Bray points to a very interesting article comparing many of the different java web frameworks and how they relate to Ruby on Rails. It is good to see how these frameworks are evolving with the competition.

Note on comments:
- I know the forms below are a little small. We have asked for years for this to be changed, but I don't think it's going to happen soon. In Apple's Safari you can resize the entry box with you mouse. For people using other browsers click on this javascript link, that should allow you to resize your form.
- Comments are moderated, so they will take a little time to appear. Currently moderation means I have to read them personally. Hopefully with OpenId deployment, this will become more automated.
- HTML markup no longer works here, due to some decision made somewhere. Sorry about that.
- If you are having trouble posting, it may be that you need javascript to be enabled. I don't think javascript should be needed for submitting a form, but that's the way it is here.
