Dear all:
I just released a set of very powerful templates for generating
GoodRelations data in RDFa and RDF/XML.
See
http://code.google.com/p/templates4goodrelations/
http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/GoodRelationsTemplates
Key features:
* Compatible with all Django-style templating engines, e.g.
- Jinja2 (Python)
- Django (Python)
- Google App Engine
- H2O Template Engine (PHP)
* XHTML 1.0 Strict compatible
* Rich RDFa patterns
* Yahoo Searchmonkey compatible
* LPGL license
The package includes templates for RDF/XML data dump files and
sitemap.xml with Semantic Sitemap extension support.
This allows developers on any platform with any programming language to
generate fully-fledged e-commerce data for the Web of Linked Data with
minimal requirements.
Basically any HTML templating engine will do (with minor modifications,
in worst case).
I expect that this approach will reduce the entrance barriers for
mainstream Web developers significantly.
Best wishes
Martin Hepp
