Apache Jena
                                  ===========

  Jena is a Java framework for building semantic web applications. It provides 
  tools and Java libraries to help you to develop semantic web and linked-data 
  apps, tools and servers.

  This distribution includes the following Apache Jena modules: 

  - jena-core ..... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/jena/
    this module provides the Jena RDF APIs, Ontology APIs and Infrence APIs. 
  - jena-iri ....... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/IRI/
    this module provides an implementation of RFC 3987 (IRI) and RFC 3986 (URI)
  - jena-arq ....... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/ARQ/
    this module (a.k.a. ARQ) provides the SPARQL query engine used by Jena
  - jena-larq ..... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/LARQ/
    this module provides full text searches as extension to ARQ
  - jena-tdb ....... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/TDB/
    this is the native storage layer for Jena

  Two additional modules are necessary for building this distribution:

  - jena-top ... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/JenaTop/
  - jena-dist . https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jena/Jena2/JenaDist/


  Installing Jena
  ---------------

  Jena is a Java library for RDF and OWL. To use Jena in your application, 
  ensure all the .jar files in the lib/ directory are on the classpath or 
  available to your web application. Jena is tested with these .jar files,
  it includes a copy of Apache Xerces and it relies on specific features 
  that change between versions.

  To use the Jena tools from the command line you need to set the JENAROOT
  and ARQROOT environment variables pointing to the location where you have 
  unzipped the Jena distribution:

    export JENAROOT=/path/to/apache-jena-2.6.5-incubating
    export ARQROOT=/path/to/apache-jena-2.6.5-incubating
    export TDBROOT=/path/to/apache-jena-2.6.5-incubating
