Redfoot is a Python-based framework for distributed Resource Description Framework (RDF) applications. Redfoot offers an RDF parser and serializer, a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server that provides a Web interface for editing/viewing/importing RDF, a query Application Programming Interface (API) for RDF with many high level query functions, a customizable User Interface (UI), and Peer-to-Peer(P2P) RDF data exchange.

Future development plans include major expansion of the P2P architecture so Redfoot applications have a robust environment for discovery of RDF statements on peers, an inference engine, example applications built upon Redfoot, and connectors that map non-RDF data to RDF triples.

Redfoot is distributed under a Berkely Software/Standard Distribution (BSD) license.
