So I now have some code that can execute some simple operations on the Sesame REST API... The next step wasn't entirely clear, at this point I've settled on authoring a simple ontology viewer that builds on top of this API. For now I'm calling it CLOVER. Eventually I'll put XL-Wiki and CLOVER into a single piece of software. That software is currently called CL-Wise, which will need radical restructuring (in what little has been implemented) to accommodate a component based structure. Components because an ontology viewer does not exactly fit into a wiki structure, though the two are easily combinable into a coherent whole.
I've been out of touch with developments in the Common Lisp world other than blogs (IRC and comp.lang.lisp are too chaotic for my liking), and haven't seen any discussion of component based architectures. I hope this doesn't turn out to be too complex.

hi sunil,
sounds interesting, i would suggest you take a look at and consider incorporating commmon logic as well :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_logic
http://cl.tamu.edu/
most current ontologies can be mapped into CL (common logic).
maybe something to consider!
Interesting note on Common Logic, I wasn't aware of this line of work. Sounds a lot like KIF.
For now though interchange and interoperability are off my radar. I'm relying on Sesame to facilitate exchange with software other than the wiki. I only aim to facilitate operations on the knowledge already in the Sesame triple store.
