[rdf4j-dev] Next major release

[Håvard Ottestad <hmottestad@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

We would like to share some information about the next major release.

The main goals are:

- Upgrading dependencies
- Query optimization
- Improvements to the LMDB Store
- Making preparations for supporting RDF 1.2 and SPARQL 1.2

We are hoping for a first milestone in mid-April and a release by the end of May.

Take a look at the milestone to see what is planned for this release: https://github.com/eclipse-rdf4j/rdf4j/milestone/128

We recommend everyone take a look at the plans and start testing the changes as soon as we publish a milestone build.

RDF4J 5.3.0 should hopefully be released next week.

Best regards,
The RDF4J project team
