SPARQL is now a W3C Recommendation (which is how W3C calls its approved standard specifications). Congratulations to those who made it happen, including my esteemed ex-colleagues at HP Labs Bristol. Just on time for the DMTF CMDBf working group to consider it as a candidate for its query language… :-)
And just below that SPARQL announcement we see a notice that the SML working group has released a third set of working drafts (SML, SML-IF). Just on time for the DMTF to be reminded of the goodness of open access to developing standards… :-)
