Marmotta Board Report for November 2014 ======================================= # submitted to board@a.o on 2014-11-07, DO NOT MODIFY! Apache Marmotta, an Open Platform for Linked Data. Apache Marmotta was founded in December 2012 and has graduated from the Incubator in November 2013. We successfully accomplish our first Google Summer of Code project (Implementation of the LDP service for Apache Marmotta based on SPARQL 1.1, MARMOTTA-444). Unfortunately after the end of the program we have not managed to keep the student working and maintaining the alternative implementation his project provided. Linked Data Platform 1.0 is moving to W3C Last Call, and Apache Marmotta continues activelly contributing to the technology providing one of the reference implementations: http://s.apache.org/4RN Apache Marmotta was presented in a half-day tutorial at the ISWC 2014. The 25 participants were introduced into "Marmotta as a linked data server", the LDP 1.0 implementation and SPARQL-MM extensions. http://s.apache.org/glR Sept and Oct have been two very busy months on the users mailing list, with questions about documentation but also bug-reports. We are trying to migrate candidates to the dev-list for contributions and as candidates to grow the community.
