'''Format Considerations'''

We probably want to stop using Mozilla's RDF support for writing RDF/XML, or at least try to clean it up a little. In order to make our RDF as interoperable as possible, we probably want to write it in an XML-based format that's relatively easy for other implementations to read. We might also want to consider Turtle, a simple, human-readable subset of N3. Simplified RDF/XML would be easier to parse using standard XML parsing libraries; Turtle would be more compact and easier to read. In either case, a number of libraries exist for parsing RDF/XML in various languages. 

note from bruce: this looks good, but some of the net-related stuff (IM, Blog, forum post, etc.) could be better covered using [http://rdfs.org/sioc/types# SIOC]. Possibly relevant types for Zotero include:

 * sioct:AnnotationSet
 * sioct:BookmarkFolder
 * sioct:ReadingList
 * sioct:BlogPost
 * sioct:BoardPost
 * sioct:Comment
 * sioct:InstantMessage
 * sioct:MailMessage
 * sioct:MicroblogPost
 * sioct:WikiArticle
 * sioct:Category
 * sioct:Tag

SIOC also has some interesting types relating to commentary.

Keep in mind too that a resource may have more than one type. Also per conversation on the forums with Dan S., I think it might be valuable to talk about how to model a library, and contents.

'''Field Mappings'''

The list of base field mappings was generated by the SQLite query
{{{
SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(f1.fieldName, '[[BR]]') FROM fields AS f1
LEFT JOIN baseFieldMappings AS b ON (b.fieldID = f1.fieldID)
LEFT JOIN fields AS f2 ON (f2.fieldID = b.baseFieldID)
GROUP BY IFNULL(b.baseFieldID, f1.fieldID)
ORDER BY IFNULL(b.baseFieldID, f1.fieldID);
}}}

Properties on the container below are applied to the item itself if no container exists. Properties on the subcontainer below are applied to the container if no subcontainer exists, or the item itself if no subcontainer or container exists.
