Hi guys,
Have you looked at "Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF
Vocabularies":

Ivan (as W3C rep.),
We have a W3C article titled:
Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF Vocabularies
Abstract reads:
This document describes best practice recipes for publishing an RDFS or
OWL vocabulary or ontology on the Web. The features of each recipe are
clearly described, so that vocabulary or ontology creators may choose
the recipe best suited to the needs of their particular situations. Each
recipe contains an example configuration for use with an Apache HTTP
server, although the principles involved may be adapted to other
environments. The recipes are all designed to be consistent with the
architecture of the Web as currently specified.
I think the W3C really have to decide if this is an Apache Guide or a
general Web guide. Right now its an Apache guide, so why not correct the
title so it reads:
Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF Vocabularies *using Apache*.
The "Web of Linked Data" is simply not about Apache, and I believe you
all know that. Thus, what's the value in producing collateral that - by
title and abstract -- implies inextricable binding of the Web and Apache.
Lets make things clearer, the clearer things are the better for the "Web
of Linked Data" or "Linked Data Web" as a whole.

Hi Bill,
Is your code to do the content negotation in RoR available somewhere?
I'm trying to come up with example code to put up (sometime soon) on
the linkeddata.org <http://linkeddata.org> site.

I thought I'd give the .htaccess approach a try, to see what's
involved in actually setting it up. I'm no expert on Apache, but
I know the basics of how it works, I've got full access to a web
server and I can read the online Apache documentation as well as
the next person.
So... after an hour or so of messing around, I still couldn't get
Apache based linked data content negotiation to work properly.
(Something to do with turning off MultiViews which in turn meant
fiddling with AllowOverride). I had more pressing things to do so
I gave up.
Anyway, I conclude that I agree with Martin that this is not in
general an easy way to set up content negotiation! And I had full
access to all the Apache conf files - without that I wouldn't have
got anywhere. In contrast, last year I wrote some code to do
linked data content negotiation in a Ruby on Rails app, which was
pretty easy.
