 Jena was originally developed by researchers in [HP Labs](http://www.hpl.hp.com),
 starting in Bristol, UK, in 2000. Jena has always been an open-source project,
 and has been extensively used in a wide variety of semantic web applications and
 demonstrators. In 2009, HP decided to refocus development activity away from direct

+Welcome to the Apache Jena project! Jena is a Java framework for building
+Semantic Web applications.
+Jena provides a collection of tools and Java libraries to help you
+to develop [semantic web](http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/) and
+[linked-data](http://linkeddata.org/) apps, tools and servers.
+
+The Jena Framework includes:
+
+* an API for reading, processing and writing [RDF](http://www.w3.org/RDF/) data in XML, N-triples and Turtle formats;
+* an ontology API for handling [OWL](http://www.w3.org/standards/techs/owl#w3c_all) and RDFS ontologies;
+* a rule-based inference engine for reasoning with RDF and OWL data sources;
+* stores to allow large numbers of RDF triples to be efficiently stored on disk;
+* a query engine compliant with the latest [SPARQL](http://www.w3.org/standards/semanticweb/query) specification
+* servers to allow RDF data to be published to other applications using a variety
+of protocols, including SPARQL
+
+Jena is currently an [incubator](http://incubator.apache.org/) project of the
+[Apache Software Foundation](http://www.apache.org).
