I refactored the code of redlandbot. It was fun. If you want a more general-purpose intelligent agent, try http://www.logilab.org/project/narval

We have a bot project called Intel/Agent. You can find it at:

I had my doubts when I first saw the SQL style in RDQL (or whichever), wondering why that approach was taken rather than an RPath. The latter did seem the intuitive approach. Since then I’ve only read the articles on the Path side, but have played around with the SQL side. Ok, I’ve run into some situations where something like a recursive call would have been welcome. But generally SPARQL appears to work a treat, and I reckon conceptually very easy for anyone with a vague idea of SQL.

I think we’ll see a lot of interesting results when people start stress-testing SPARQL (i.e. writing queries that are more than just SELECT ?x WHERE (?x foaf:knows rich:Rich)). It’s debatable whether SPARQL is “good enough” (striking the right balance of simplicity and familiarity versus power), or whether missing features or a basis in SQL is detrimental, and I think that exposure to real applications will illuminate this.

[...] Now, I’ve be in beet a few days, thus haven’t been hacking. Now I try to catch up with all the interessting stuff arround. My main interesst by now is Sparql/XMPP and Jena therefor. I’m going to implement a bot very simular to BigBrother but split up in an bot that talks with the user and one that serves Sparql Queries via XMPP – which seems to me like a natural extension of the RDF Net API.
