Hello, Hasan--
I didn't make very much progress (really any) on resuscitating the type-based rendering system because about that time I
got heavily involved as a committer for Jena. I'm still interested in pursuing that work, tho'.
I'm certainly interested in being a committer for Clerezza, but I feel that I have to ask, what is Clerezza? I don't
mean that in a joking way, I mean that without the type-based rendering system, I'm not sure exactly when I would use
Clerezza instead of a more well-developed and older RDF framework like Jena or RDF4J. And if I need a measure of
independence from specific implementations, I could use Commons RDF to achieve that for most core RDF concepts.
I got interested in Clerezza because of the type-based-rendering system, which seemed to offer the possibility (a little
bit like LDPath templating) of an elegant stack that could take me from persistence in a triplestore all the way through
into a browser or phone, without making me work at spending time gluing together different layers that were never
intended to handle linked data.
Can we articulate some clear, simple use cases for Clerezza?

Hi Reto, Stian, A. Soroka, and all Clerezza Devs.
A year ago I started this thread.
I have made some small improvements to the website esp. the tutorials.
I admit It is a slow progress, but better slow than not at all.
I'd like to count on you all to make a faster progress.
So, if you have some ideas or would like to write or co-write tutorials,
please let us know.
Further, I would like to ask for suggestions on how to improve our existing
codes.
Do you have issues that can be resolved within this project?
@A. Soroka: How was the outcome of your efforts to use parts of Apache
Clerezza Legacy codes (typerendering and typehandlerspace) ?
@all: Would you like to become a new committer to further develop Apache
Clerezza?
Is there anything you miss that you want to see within Apache Clerezza?
@Reto: What would you suggest to make Apache Clerezza more usable?
Cheers
Hasan

Agree for playing on Clerezzas strengths on JAX-RS and I would say to
actually include the SPARQL-as-Graph binding as well.
Also worth seeing if there is possible crossover with the new incubator
podling Apache Juneau which is also looking for contributors:
http://juneau.incubator.apache.org/#about.html
I think the Clerezza website need a bit of similar tutorials to get
started
so potential contributors understand what it is all about.
Yes, it urgently needs an update.
http://clerezza.apache.org/getting-started/ links to "RESTful Web Service
Framework (JAX-RS) Tutorial", "RDF Tutorial" and "Tutorial: Combining
JAX-RS and RDF" which are all 404 :-(
Should probably be removed since it is not what Clerezza currently is now?
It's a pity to remove a good tutorial,
but what do you think?
Cheers

Hi, Clerezza-folks!
The most exciting part of Clerezza to me, by far, is the JAX-RS support.
I'd rather work on Commons RDF (or Jena, where I am a committer now) to
move RDF APIs forward, and there are lots of powerful SPARQL impls out
there, each with its own streangths and weaknesses. But the JAX-RS
thing--
that's completely unique to Clerezza, and it's a really cool idea. It's
not
always easy to move RDF to and from the Web, and JAX-RS is a powerful,
stable, enormously-well-supported technology so reusing it is a great
tactical move. I'd be interested in working on Clerezza, but really only
for the JAX-RS part. I'd actually be happy to see the RDF API move
towards
Commons (focus the efforts for more power!).
