The changes in this release are entirely related to the bundled
command-line scripts:

trapper - a tool that works much like Redland's "rapper"; it fetches,
parses and serialises RDF. Processing data from STDIN now works.

toquet - a tool that works much like Redland's "roqet"; it queries SPARQL
endpoints and RDF files. I've added a shortcut for SPARQL describe, so
that you don't need to write a SPARQL query - just provide the URIs to
describe as command-line options. Example:

  toquet --describe=http://dbpedia.org/resource/Perl \
         --describe=http://dbpedia.org/resource/PHP \
         --endpoint=http://tobyinkster.co.uk/_sparql

trist - a new tool that provides statistics on an RDF data (e.g. tells you
what vocabularies are most used; how many triples there are; etc), and
outputs the results in fairly readable Turtle.
