SYNOPSIS
      use strict;
      use CPAN::Metadata::RDF;

      # To generate metadata
      my $m = CPAN::Metadata::RDF->new();
      $m->backpan("/home/acme/backpan/BACKPAN/");
      $m->cpan("/home/acme/cpan/CPAN/");
      $m->directory(".");
      $m->create_db; # once
      $m->generate;

      # To output metadata
      my $m = CPAN::Metadata::RDF->new();
      $m->directory(".");
      print $m->output; # RDF

      # Methods to parse and query RDF soon...

DESCRIPTION
    This module generates metadata about CPAN modules (and BACKPAN) modules
    in RDF format.

    It requires a local CPAN mirror (for example, mirrored using
    "/usr/bin/rsync -av --delete ftp.nic.funet.fi::CPAN
    /path/to/local/cpan/") as well as a local BACKPAN mirror (for example,
    mirrored using "/usr/bin/rsync -av --delete pause.perl.org::backpan
    /path/to/local/backpan/").

    It currently uses an SQLite database as a temporary datastore. It takes
    about two hours to generate the RDF file from scratch. I don't expect
    many people to run this module. I run it occasionally, and you should be
    able to fetch the latest version from:
