RDF, OWL-DL, and other Semantic Web Technologies in Ruby

Greetings Rare Reader!

You’re a “Rare Reader” since I suspect nobody ever reads this blog! ;-) Can you blame them with the current lack of posts? 

I have yet again started on a new project. This time working with RDF, RDF-Stores, OWL-DL, Semantic Web, and etc...

I see a need to express some of the programming within Ruby instead of Java, so I may start to get more involved with Ruby (which I really would like to do). But time will have to tell on this topic.

One deciding factor would be the gems that are available for Ruby to work with RDF and OWL-DL frameworks. I have performed some basic searches and these are some of the results that I have been able to find. If you know of any others that are current please post a comment!
