Using two issue tracking systems at once is unhelpful, I suggest the
team pick one, and stick to it.

In Soprano, based on my very limited understanding, there is a class
designed specifically for connecting Soprano to any SPARQL query engine
over HTTP.  It is called Soprano::Client::SparqlModel and is documented
at
http://soprano.sourceforge.net/apidox/stable/classSoprano_1_1Client_1_1SparqlModel.html

So... where is the actual issue here for wintermute?  As currently
stated in the Bug Description above, this issue sounds a bit like "we
need our program to do what it is supposed to do".

OK... so... go ahead and code, so it does that :)  Set up your SPARQL
query backend of choice (Rasqual?  Joseki? Openlink Virtuoso Open
Source?  Other?), and write a bit of glue code to point
Soprano::Client::SparqlModel at it.  Job done.  I think??  Am I over-
simplifying here?  Possibly :)

What the specific problem is, that is preventing your team from coding
something like that, to let your application execute SPARQL queries, is
not mentioned at all in the description of this issue.  Nor is what your
team has already tried in this area, and why it didn't work out, and
pointers to those earlier failed attempts...

More generally, doing    apt-cache search sparql     and investigating
each package returned in depth could well lead to greater understanding
of what parts of the task are already coded and available for wintermute
to re-use, and what parts will need to be written by the wintermute
team.

If your team has already done that kind of investigation, then please
say so, and put a pointer to the results of that work here, so those
reading the issue can easily see exactly what your team has already done
as they work towards a solution.

Title:
  Unable to load semantics from Ontology

Status in Wintermute:
  New
Status in Wintermute trunk series:
  New

Bug description:
  Wintermute requires that information, more technically known as
  resources, a subset of a RDF statement, are required in order to form
  properly machine understandable statement. An ontology provides the
  logic of knowledge for natural language processing.

  We need Soprano to simply execute a SPARQL query.
