However, SQUIN is oriented to the "web2.0" developers. How is a php/ror web developer going to interact with the web of data and make some kind of semantic-linked data mashup over a night? SQUIN will let them do this. No need of having jena, learning jena, etc. Make it simple! If it is not simple, then developers are not going to use it.
