Hi,
With the great guidance from the mentors, especially Andy, I had a
good time in GSoC 2013 working on jena-spatial [1]. I'm very grateful.
Really learnt a lot from that project.
This year, I find the issue of "Extend CONSTRUCT to build quads" [1]
very interesting. I've used javacc before. I can understand the ARQ
module of parsing SPARQL strings. With a label of "gsoc2014", is it a
suitable project for Jena in GSoC 2014? Any more details about the
project? Thanks!
Best regards,
Ying Jiang

Hi there,
Given your level of skill and expertise, this project is possibly a bit
small for you. It's not the same scale as jena-spatial. It's probably
more suited to an undergraduate or someone looking to learn about
working inside a moderately large existing codebase. You have a lot more
software engineering experience.
Can I interest you in one of:
* JENA-625 especially the part about CSV ingestion. There is now a W3C
working group looking at tabular data on the web so we know this is
interesting to the user community.
* JENA-647, (only just added) which is server side query templates for
creating data views.
In conjunction with someone (else) doing JENA-632 (custom JSON from
SPARQL query), we would have a data delivery platform for creating
domain specific data delivery for webapp.
(this was provided in the proprietary Talis platform as "SPARQL Stored
Procedures" but that no longer exists. No need to exactly follow that
but it was a popular feature so it is useful).
* JENA-624 which is about a new memory-based storage layer. As a
project, its nearer in scale to jena-spatial. This is less about RDF
and linked data and more about systems programming.
