The second edition of RDFBeans Java-to-RDF databinding framework is finally out. In 2.0 version the library underwent major refactoring to clean and enhance the API and provide new databinding techniques.
RDFBeans is an open-source object-RDF databinding and persistence library for the Semantic Web development with Java language. It provides a framework for mapping an object-oriented domain model to RDF resource descriptions.

RDFBeans framework (see “Simple RDF data binding“) is a Sourceforge project now:
http://rdfbeans.sourceforge.net
A large part of SW development is representing the information as RDF for persistence and interoperability. It’s usually done with lots of the glue code to map the programming object model to RDF triples and vice versa.
I contributed some code to generate DOAP/FOAF metadata from SourceKibitzer‘s project and user profiles. My add-ons have been deployed recently, so SK is one of the largest (600+ projects) DOAP repositories now.
