Semantic Search - Faceted Search and Web 3.0 for Drupal

The module is being updated to make sure it works well in Java 6 and with the latest Sesame 2.0 release.
There are still a number of bugs with the pilot application. The application is being tested on OSX and will a launch on windows server 2003. The three major hurdles are

• CRUD speed- using a Sesame memory store is very fast, but updates are hard because of the way it reindexed. Hoping this is fixed in 2.0, as I filed a bug about this before.
• Subcategories - since Drupal taxonomy doesn't do inheritances its been hard to keep the synchronization between these two concepts accurate
• Other Gremlins - theres a number of issues that may come up with real world usage relating to concurrency and re indexing from Drupal to the store. Again, speed is the biggest issue here, since CRUD operates can take 1 sec per each node, and there are 6000 nodes. I guess an hour isn't too bad? http://drupal.org/node/217291 covers a couple of bugs that come out of not completing other features. But when you first see bugs this critical, it isn't easy to stay calm. ;)
