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 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.
