Before announcing the Memento extension to this list we tested it with a locally installed Semantic MediaWiki and all seemed OK. It would be great if someone could test it on a live one with actual real data. We got in touch with the people behind http://neurolex.org/wiki/Main_Page but they are running an older MediaWiki version and are not in a hurry to upgrade because they have a lot of extensions. From the early days of Memento, we have been very interested in semantic web, linked data applications of the Memento protocol. See, for example: - http://arxiv.org/abs/1003.3661 - illustrates the power of the protocol to do time series analysis across versions of linked data description (in DBpedia) - http://mementoweb.org/depot/native/dbpedia/ - the DBpedia archive that we operate and that is Memento compliant - Greetings Herbert > > Kind regards, > > Remco de Boer > _______________________________________________ > Wikitech-l mailing list > Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
