It can be, and it shouldn't be hard: I never got to do this only
because no one expressed interest in that. Outside of standard Ruby
library, Samizdat's RDF storage only depends on Ruby/DBI with
Ruby/Postgres.

Just looked again, it seems all it would take is to take out
samizdat/storage.rb, config.yaml (you'd only need the db, ns, and map
sections), and a couple of definitions from samizdat.rb (class
SamizdatConfig and def config). Should I package that as a separate
library?
