Text for Elephas:
Great.
I'm almost tempted to send two announcements to general lists - one for
Elephas and one for Fuseki2

Apache Jena Elephas is a new set of modules which provide the basic
building blocks necessary to write RDF producing and consuming Hadoop 2.x
applications.
It provides a Common library which contains Hadoop Writable
implementations for the basic RDF primitives (Node, Triples and Quads), an
IO library which contains input and output format support for all RDF
serialisations Jena supports and a Map/Reduce library which contains some
basic Mapper and Reducer implementations for manipulating RDF. There is
also a demo application that shows how to use these libraries to compute
some basic statistics across arbitrary RDF data.
These libraries have been under development for some time but not yet
widely deployed in production environments, we would appreciate any
feedback on bugs, missing features and documentation improvements.

-- Rob?
(if you are short of time - send me some bullet points of key user
benefits and other notes, or point to earlier text you are happy with
and I'll write some copy)
== Fuseki2
The release of Fuseki2 includes server security and an all new server
admin UI. It is available both as a standalone server, and packaged as
a WAR file.
http://jena.apache.org/documentation/fuseki2/
The security is provided by Apache Shiro. This can be configured to
meet specific deployment needs.
The new UI provides administration of a running server, including
managing datasets. At the moment, it provides the abilities to create
datasets, upload data, query the data and to backup the database on a
live server.
This interface is new and we are seeking contribution and feedback to
help shape it's evolution.
This incorporates component and contributions from YASR
http://yasgui.org/ (with thanks to Laurens Rietveld)
Fuseki v1 continues to be available. To ease transition, the Fuseki v2
standalone server can be run in the same way as Fuseki1 for existing
configurations.
== OSGi bundle
Each Apache Jena release now produces an OSGi bundle.
Thanks to Stian Soiland-Reyes for contributing this and working with
early users.
