Dear. I am Julio Caguano, an undergraduate student of Computer Science at University of Cuenca in Ecuador and I would like to participate in the GOSC 2018 program with this project [1]. I have been playing with semantic technologies (i.e. RDF, SPARQL) for a while, as part of some of my subjects. Also I have a decent knowledge of the Java language and know the fundamentals of C/C++.
I was taking a look to Any23 source code and I noticed it uses RDF4J so the implementation of the new RDFa parser should be done through the RDFParse interface of that framework, am I right?. On the other hand, I was thinking that the Java - C/C++ communication could be performed via JNI (Java Native Interface), loading compiled objects of librdfa as libraries and invoking them with native calls in Java. What do you think?, do you have a better approach for the bridge problem in mind?. Also I was wondering if the librdfa library should be included somehow in the Any23 project as a dependency or is it better to keep it separated and devise a post installation process to add the needed files for the new RDFa parser. Regards, Julio [1]https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ANY23-295
