Hi Andy,
Thank you very much for the quick response. I already followed the
discussion under the JIRA bug report and did some background research on
that. Also, I found a useful tutorial [1] to get background knowledge on SPARQL
and used twinkle tool to test queries.

As for the related projects, currently I'm doing an internship at WSO2
org [2] and these days we are contributing to a project to implement a QA
portal [3]. Please take a look into that.

So for now I'll do some further research on JSON-LD and try to build the Jena
codebase and get familiar with it.

Thank you again for the guidance.

-Thanks
Dammina

PS : I did not participate for GSoC 2013 :)

Hi,
I'm Dammina Sahabandu, a Computer Engineering Undergraduate at University
of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. I'm very much interested in content negotiation
and
HTTP/REST stuff. So I would like to select this project idea as my GSoC
2014 project because I feel like it is the best suited project for me in
the 2014 GSoC ideas list. Also in University I have contributed to several
projects related to this area. And I have a good knowledge in the area of
relational databases. So first of all I guess it would be better to do
some
research work on SPARQL. So can you please give me an insight of this
project.

-Thanks
Dammina


Dammina,

Thank you for your interest.

This project isn't a fixed task - the first step is to design and discuss
with potential users.  Defining the precise problem to be solved is part of
the challenge but the general idea is how can we connect linked data, in a
SPARQL database to a web API that deliver custom JSON to the domain of the
data.

I can be fairly confident that the relationship to JSON-LD will come up so
as background, you'll need to understand something of SPARQL and also of
JSON-LD [1].  A general look around to see what's been discussed before
would also be a good step.

You mentioned you've contributed to several projects in the area - are
there any public details available? particularly in technologies
potentially related to the work - java, templating, HTTP, build tools and
working in a large codebase.

Take a look at the Jena codebase and get a feel for the area that might be
involved.

Did you take part in GSoC last year?

Feel free to ask questions and we'll help you, and everyone else, see
whether any of the GSoC projects work for you.

         Andy

PS Anyone can suggest a GSoC project including GSoC students.  Add a JIRA
for any ideas though assume you'll be in someway involved in some way with
the project if it goes ahead.  A mentor from Jena will be necessary for the
admin but the admin is only a small part of a successful project.
