    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ANY23-19?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13179795#comment-13179795 ] 

Lewis John McGibbney commented on ANY23-19:
-------------------------------------------

Hey Paolo, with regards to Chris' recent comments on the dev list and the stub report he filed, how did you get on wrt moving away from the packages you've highlighted above and also with progressing with more collaboration between ASF RDF-type projects? I'm using this issue as a basis to kick the converation off and hopefully others will join in.

> Any23 currently uses Sesame to work with or parse RDF. Specifically Any23 uses these classes from org.openrdf.* packages:
> org.openrdf.model.BNode
> org.openrdf.model.datatypes.XMLDatatypeUtil
> org.openrdf.model.impl.LiteralImpl
> org.openrdf.model.impl.URIImpl
> org.openrdf.model.impl.ValueFactoryImpl
> org.openrdf.model.Literal
> org.openrdf.model.Resource
> org.openrdf.model.Statement
> org.openrdf.model.URI
> org.openrdf.model.Value
> org.openrdf.model.ValueFactory
> org.openrdf.model.vocabulary.OWL
> org.openrdf.model.vocabulary.RDF
> org.openrdf.model.vocabulary.RDFS
> org.openrdf.model.vocabulary.XMLSchema
> org.openrdf.repository.RepositoryConnection
> org.openrdf.repository.RepositoryException
> org.openrdf.repository.RepositoryResult
> org.openrdf.repository.sail.SailRepository
> org.openrdf.rio.helpers.RDFParserBase
> org.openrdf.rio.ntriples.NTriplesParser
> org.openrdf.rio.ntriples.NTriplesUtil
> org.openrdf.rio.ntriples.NTriplesWriter
> org.openrdf.rio.ParseErrorListener
> org.openrdf.rio.ParseLocationListener
> org.openrdf.rio.RDFFormat
> org.openrdf.rio.RDFHandler
> org.openrdf.rio.RDFHandlerException
> org.openrdf.rio.RDFParseException
> org.openrdf.rio.RDFParser
> org.openrdf.rio.rdfxml.RDFXMLParser
> org.openrdf.rio.rdfxml.RDFXMLWriter
> org.openrdf.rio.turtle.TurtleWriter
> org.openrdf.sail.memory.MemoryStore
> org.openrdf.sail.Sail
> org.openrdf.sail.SailException
> Would it be possible to abstract away any specific RDF APIs to allow Any23 users to chose between, say: Apache Clerezza [1], Apache Jena [2], Sesame [3] and/or others?
> An example of small RDF distiller which does this is java-rdfa [4]. Maybe a similar agnostic (but easy to integrate) approach is possible for Any23. Although, java-rdfa does not need to parse RDF content itself.
