Why is CORS any better than JSONP or any home-grown js that writes a
new <script> tag for making Linked Data accessible ?
new script tag (afaik) won't work for rdf/rdfa etc - but jsonp style
approach may be a quick and easy to deploy alternative..

All,
Could everybody publishing linked data please note that open data
isn't currently retrievable via client side JS libraries due to same
origin policies and the likes.
In order to make it open and accessible by UAs we need to add in CORS
[1] headers.
Please see the email below from TimBL which includes a request for a
linked data bubble diagram showing which systems support CORS, and the
full issue here on www-tag [2]

Kinglsey, Ian, members of the Pedantic Web - I've cc'd you in directly
for rather obvious reasons :)
Richard/Pedants, will this need to be added to the Publishing Linked
Data guide / recs?
Best,
Nathan

Thus far the only thing I can see that comes any where near to
addressing is the work in progress Cross-Origin Resource Sharing [1]
but afaik it's only implemented in the newest browsers + the vast
majority of resources on the web don't have these headers set so
again the application wouldn't be able to access most data -
rendering any apps made very limited and virtually useless - which
imho is a huge shame since all the peices needed are ready and
waiting on billions(?) of machines.
Well, machines which serve public data must now serve the two (why
two?!) HTTP headers for CORS.
Just lean on data sources you know to do this. And people have to
use new browsers to get new functionality.
Note if they run an add-on, like Tabulator, then they skip this
problem as the code is
deemed trusted.

We could do with a version of the linked data bubble diagram with the
systems which support CORS in green. Anyone?
