Thank you Sergio for your answer. So I did prepare a document attached to this message, I hope it will help you to see if, as you say, our project's features fit in your roadmap. Thank you Fabian

Marmotta is very modular, and the platform allows to easily plug-in new modules. I guess we do not have so much documentation about such modules, but you can use the maven archetype [1] to generate your own one and see how it looks like. > Maybe I should describe the functionalities we are thinking about, > and the Marmotta team would tell us if those functionalities are > interesting for Marmotta and thus should be part of it.

Of course, having a more concrete overview about your goals would allow us to get a better understanding to know if those features fit in our roadmap. Thanks for our interest.
