[siren-user] [ANN] SIREn 0.2.0 Release

[Renaud Delbru]

  The stable release of SIREn 0.2.0 is finally available. This release 
is containing additional bugfixes, as well as performance and ranking 
improvements. This release has been extensively tested in the past 
months. For example, we are currently migrating the Sindice index to 
this SIREn version. It has also been used to index the Billion Triple 
Challenge dataset at the Entity Search Track at SemSearch 2010 [1]. More 
information about how SIREn has been employed in the semantic search 
evaluation can be found in [2].
