Re: Creating JSON from RDF

Hi Jeni! Thanks, that looks interesting, and the idea of supporting similar mappings to XML and to CSV is very attractive. I also find this attractive :) But I couldn't actually work out how I would use it in the kind of situation we find ourselves in. We have, for example, RDF like this:

Re: Creating JSON from RDF

Hi Jeni, One project, amongst other, in this trend is irON [1] (with its irJSON[2] serialization profile). Also note that a revision of this specification will be released in the coming month or so based on the latest work we have done regarding the development of some parsers. The biggest

Re: Creating JSON from RDF

Hi Kingsley, Why not use Jeni's dump as a usecase example/tutorial re. irON? A What (for the problem), Why (for irON virtues) and a How (an example based on the usecase presented). This is how you can formulate a very sharp apex for the irON value pyramid. Also note, UK, US, and Aussie

Re: The Power of Virtuoso Sponger Technology

Hi all, The Web of Linked Data shouldn't be about mass crawling (search engine style) etc... It has to be. How would you answer a query like all offers for a book written by a German author without crawling the relevant data sets? First question would be: which dataset has this

Re: Project idea: cviki (or some better name than that)

Hi all, Maybe that structWSF, conStruct some extensions to conStruct developed by the community could meet these needs. I would suggest you to take a look at the two systems here: http://openstructs.org/structwsf/ (structWSF) http://constructscs.com (conStruct) Here are some observations:

Re: AW: fw: Google starts supporting RDFa -- 'rich snippets'

Hi Chris, don't know. In a O'Reilly about Google's RDFa support, Guha says that they draw and plan to draw from existing vocabularies. And we're not going to do this all by ourselves. As it is, we are drawing from several sources. We're drawing from microformats. We're drawing from vCard.

Re: Source file of the LOD connectivity patterns

Hi Marko! I'm finishing up the final version/draft of the LOD March 2004 analysis (see the first draft at [1]). I was wondering if there is a easily parseable format for getting the graph structure of the Linked Data cloud. That is, something analogous to how [2] provides [3]. Hopefully

Re: owl:sameAs links from OpenCyc to WordNet

Hi Dan, Certainly a useful concept to have name(s) for, ... but I think not quite what is needed to link these specific datasets. The W3C wordnet data is a collection of descriptions of linguistic concepts. The OpenCyc things they're linked to are not linguistic entities, but the real world

Re: UMBEL Web services endpoints released

Hi Sherman, The link in ref [1] is a typo, should be http://umbel.zitgist.com http://umbel.zitgist.org/ Oups, thanks for noticing :) Take care, Fred

UMBEL Web services endpoints released

Hi everybody, We are pleased to announce the release of some RESTful UMBEL Web services endpoints. [1] Two blog posts introducing the series of Web services endpoint can be read here: [2] [3] A document talking about the philosophy behind these Web service endpoints can be read here:

Re: LOD Constellation

Hi Gong! And I still have some questions to be clarified. I've downloaded class_level_lod_constellation.csv, which gives relations between ontologies rather than between classes. Are there any class-level mappings available? And, how do you obtain such mappings? Is it just based on explicitly

Re: RDFa in Wikipedia

Hi all, Wikipedia URIs evolve over time as new concepts are added and disambiguated. Any data linked to those URIs would need remapping. There is also a notability requirement for existence. UMBEL has a nice subject concept space, though some would argue it is just one view of the world.

Re: Drilling into the LOD Cloud

Hi all, First of all, I think that this thread is going out of control and some things have to be keep into mind when we talk about this stuff. Then between UMBEL and OpenCyc: 1. owl:sameAs 2. owl:equivalentClass If these thingies are owl:sameAs, then presumably they have same

Re: [Linking-open-data] watchdog.net and LOD best practices

Hi Matthias, But are data objects not just another layer of abstraction? RDF/OWL gives us the possibility to use URIs and ontologies to describe the things we are interested in (districts, people, protein sequences) without taking detours through thinking in terms of documents, data sets,
