• Initial support for RML-wrapped REST endpoints as federation members (#486).
• Adding a 'numberOfSolMapsRetrievedPerReqOp' entry to the stats of bind joins (#489).

Changed

• Reimplementation of the printers for logical and for physical plans (#487).
• Bux fix: 'equals' comparison of logical and also of physical plans must take the ID of the root operator into account (#488).

0.0.7

• Adding the bound join algorithm from the FedX paper (#458).
• Adding basic printing of executable plans (#473).
• Adding the option to specify in the config file which logical-to-physical plan converter and which logical-to-physical operator converter should be used, including which physical operators they should consider (#481).

Changed

• Merging the logical operators tpAdd, bgpAdd, and gpAdd into just one: gpAdd; likewise for tpOptAdd, bgpOptAdd, and gpOptAdd (#454).
• Removing the old StatsPrinter in favor of the new JSON-based one (#460).
• Changing the cardinality-based join ordering heuristic to avoid cardinality requests for plans without joins (#465).
• Removing the "GreedyBasedReordering" heuristic from the default sequence of heuristics of the logical optimizer (#467).
• Upgrading the code base to version 5.5.0 of Jena (#478).
• Reorganizes completely how the federation access manager works (#480).

• Initial GUI with query editor (#427).
• HeFQUINEngineBuilder added as a means to consolidate and simplify the creation of a HeFQUINEngine instance (#440, #441, and #448).
• ExternalIntegrationDemo added as a means to demonstrate how the HeFQUIN engine can be used directly within the Java code of other Java projects (#448).

Changed

• Improving the text-based plan printers to make the printed plans easier to look at (d83c8c2, 21020c5, 80189b7, 66d8124, #442)
• The MergeRequests heuristic does not anymore push BIND operators into requests (#433).
• Fixing and streamlining the various bind join implementations (#443 and e7ae6a9).
• Removing the explicit notion of default components from the vocabulary for describing a HeFQUINEngine configuration (#441).
• Replacing the implicit definition of the vocabulary for describing federations by an explicit one (#432).
• Refactoring of DataRetrievalResponse (#409).
• Refactoring of QueryPatternUtils (#428).
• Moving the code for federation access into a separate Maven module called hefquin-access (#450).
• Moving the code generated from the vocabularies into hefquin-vocabs, making that an actual Maven module (#450).
