# fcrepo Transform [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/fcrepo4-exts/fcrepo-transform.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/fcrepo4-exts/fcrepo-transform)

fcrepo-transform allows you to set up and publish transformations of the RDF that composes a Fedora object's representation. You can use SPARQL for RDF-to-RDF transformations, or LDPath for RDF-to-named-fields transformations. Example uses might include presenting different views of an object's metadata to different audiences (descriptive metadata to one group, descriptive and also, live-translating from one kind of metadata to another (the way people have traditionally used XSLT with Fedora 3 objects)), or filling in the fields of an HTML form for editing metadata.

Maybe splitting this up into shorter sentences? and "descriptive metadata to one group, descriptive and also..." doesn't make sense to me.
