Nick;  There seems to be some misunderstanding on either what TBC does
or the topic of this news forum, which is questions on TopBraid
Composer.

Composer is an ontology editor.  An ontology editor does exactly what
you are looking for: <OWL-DL (with
instances, object properties, axioms, inference services)
ontologies>.  Composer also uses the SemWeb standard SPARQL query
language for querying and manipulating data.

Composer's implementation is practical and efficient.

<Are there any safe, complete, and practical means of doing this using
My/Postgre-SQL>

Relational stores are supported in composer though a D2RQ proxy.
Safe, complete, and practical.

<Again we would like to create concepts, instances, properties with
their respected domain and ranges, inferences services, sparql
querying>

These are fully supported by TopBraid Composer.  In addition, Composer
supports the use of multiple reasoners and rule engines which can be
configured to run in a sequence.

<...using our own Java implementation and a "nice :)" triple
store....>

This part of the discussion might belong on a different forum.
However you need to build extensions to Composer, you can design plug-
ins and you should look into TopBraid Live and Ensemble, the latter of
which provides an easy, efficient way to develop Semantic Web
applications.
