== Jena 6.1.0
This version of Jena has support for RDF 1.2 syntax, input and output.
RDF/XML support has recently been added to complete the RDF 1.2 formats.
SPARQL 1.2 query, update and result set formats are up-to-date for the
features for RDF 1.2
All RDF 1.1 usage of Jena remains unaffected.
The RDF and SPARQL Working Group is in the final stages of completing
it's work. This includes the various test suites.
The working group is seeking feedback from all RDF users.
