I have to add access to some XMP data to an existing python application. XMP is built on RDF, RDF is built on XML. I try to reuse as much of possible of existing code. btw, dont mistake XMP (http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/) with XMPP (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3920.html), backed by PyXMPP (http://pyxmpp.jajcus.net/). XMP is adobe's standard for storing metadata in files (jpg, pdf). Are there people with the same concern out there?
It seemed logical to use existing rdf libraries. I found two, RDFLib (http://rdflib.net) and pyrple (http://infomesh.net/pyrple/). My first contact with RDFLib is disappointing: real intricate lib (lot of modules, lot of methods), almost no documentation (an almost empty Epydoc generated documentation frame), puzzling experiments. I guess XMP uses a real tiny subset of RDF possibilities, and maybe RDFLib is fine for ambitious design, but too heavy in this case? Ill now dig a little on pyrple. Feedback on these matters, please? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
