Release 0.0.6 - Toward spec compliance

The 0.0.6 pre-alpha version of TurtleScript released today. The improvements are mostly under the hood in a new ANTLR grammar that is based on the Turtle spec. It is still incomplete, but now features like @base and more literal types are supported. The javascript is also hooked in to automated unit tests.

As always, please check out the example page at http://turtlescript.sourceforge.net/example/example.html and the FAQ. Submit a request for support if something doesn't seem to be right. Thank you for your interest.

Weely Release 0.0.5 - validator and example improvements

The 0.0.5 pre-alpha version of TurtleScript released today. This version lets you paste html into the validator page instead of uploading a file. There is also a new example page to get you started creating Turtle data.

The intent of the TurtleScript project is to demonstrate that semantic data can be embedded in web pages in a way that is useful to both the web author and to external tools such as search engines and other semantic tools.
