Hi all. Semantic MediaWiki 0.6 has just been released! It brings a great load of new features -- look at http://ontoworld.org/wiki/Upcoming_events for a first impression (don't forget to slide the timeline, and see the "further results" link at the bottom ;).
The main novelties are: * New Special:Ask for directly browsing query results and for testing queries. * New output format "timeline" for inline queries that deal with dates. Available parameters are: timelinestart (name of start date attribute), timelineend (name of end date attribute, if any), tiemlinesize (CSS-encoded height), timelinebands (comma-seperated list of bands such as DAY, WEEK, MONTH, YEAR, ...), and timelineposition (one of start, end, today, middle). * Complete RDF export is now possible with a maintenance script, whic can e.g. be run periodically on a server to create RDF files. * New "service links" feature: any attribute can provide configurable links to online services. As a special case, the map-services of geo-coordinates are now fully configurable. * Inline queries now link to life search for further results if not all results were shown inline. * The formatting code for inline queries was rewritten to become more powerful. For instance, multi-property outputs in list format will never produce empty parentheses now. * RDF-export code is cleaner and some further OWL DL incompatibilities are caught. * RDF-export now can generate browsable RDF (with backlinks) even for Category pages. * Improved headers for sorting tables. Sort icon now visible even if no text is shown in header. * Many bugfixes. To install SMW 0.6, get it from sourceforge [1] and copy it over your current SMW installation. Recreate SMW_LocalSettings.php to have an updated version. For all features to work, you will need MediaWiki 1.8. Documentation still has to be created for some of the new features, but ontoworld.org may serve as a practical demonstration in the meantime. We are looking forward to comments and bugreports on the new features ... Special thanks this time go to Simile for providing the nice JavaScript Timeline that we have integrated with inline queries, and to Dan Connolly and everybody else who recently encouraged us to do a new release *soon* :-) Have fun, Markus [1] http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=147937 -- Markus Krötzsch Institute AIFB, University of Karlsruhe, D-76128 Karlsruhe [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone +49 (0)721 608 7362 www.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/WBS/ fax +49 (0)721 693 717
