Hi Gunnar and all,

This is really encouraging - you're steaming ahead which is great! Happy to 
then think about that strategic review for a v 6.0 in time for perhaps June 
next year.

We are now updating further things in OWL-RL and pySHACL and there are a couple 
of bugs that prevent pyHACL from passing all SHACL tests:

https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/issues/847 
https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/issues/848 

Ashley, who raised those, has also suggested a simple patch for one of them 
(847).

So we would like to drop those (easy to fix) issues into the mix for a 5.0 
release so that we can say rdflib is dealing with SHACL completely.

We're standing by to assist if requested.

Cheers,

Nick

Hi Nicholas,

(I've CC'd the rdflib-dev mailing list as well - so that everyone is on board!)

I've had a chat with Jörn, and come up with the following road-map:

RDFLib Roadmap
------------------------

I believe lots of people are already using master in “production”, so I would 
like to get a 5.0-beta release ASAP.

We’ve already made some big changes since 4.2.2, in particular:
* We’ve removed 2.6 support
* We’ve changed to have one code-base for py2 and py3

In addition I would like to merge these:

* Remove SPARQLWrapper dep: https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/744
* Remove RDFa/Microdata from core RDFLib
https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/828
* Namespace inherting from unicode: https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/597
* Improve compute_qname: https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/649

Further down the line :

* Store context graph vs. uri fix: https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/409
* Streaming APIs: https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/pull/411
* split up of core vs. extra functionlity - discussion in
https://github.com/RDFLib/rdflib/issues/391

Me and Jörn will try to sit together the weekend of 27th of October, pull the 
trigger on a bunch of these PRs and get out a 5.0.0.

Then we can try to get 5.0.1 out a bit more quickly after that :D

And we don't have to be shy about going to 6.X quite soon as well - if we chose 
to split up into more sub-modules for instance.

How does that sound?

Cheers,
- Gunnar
