EPrints supports VOID and LoD, So should we?

Previous work did happen on creating a rendering of RDF linked in the header for DSpace@MIT, this was since dropped from MIT's instance but the source is still in the SCM repository modules section.  What is needed is a SPARQL endpoint that can be queried to return RDF descriptions of DSPace content.  I propose we leverage the semantic storage GSoC project, but introduce a Tupelo based endpoint that will basically be a confiugrable web-application

We would engineer this Tupelo Service to expose the semantic storage details from the storage-

GSOC10 - Storage Service Implementations Based on Semantic Content Repository

This is proposal that would be good for a GSoC project this year.
