One of the more elaborate use cases I collected from the e-mails sent in
over the past few months was the following:
USE CASE: Annotate structured data that HTML has no semantics for, and
which nobody has annotated before, and may never again, for private
use or
use in a small self-contained community.
[...]
To address this use case and its scenarios, I've added to HTML5 a simple
syntax (three new attributes) based on RDFa.
There's a quickly-hacked-together demo at
http://philip.html5.org/demos/microdata/demo.html (works in at least
Firefox and Opera), which attempts to show you the JSON serialisation
of the embedded data, which might help in examining the proposal.
I have a *totally unfinished* demo that does something rather similar
at [1]. It is highly likely to break and/or give incorrect results**.
If you use it for anything important you are insane :)
I have now added extremely preliminary RDF support with output as N3 and
RDF/XML courtesy of rdflib. It is certain to be buggy.
