Hi Ben,

Yes, I noticed the newer version, and that vocabularies are no longer mentioned in it. I whole-heartedly agree that vocabularies are an advanced topic and the primer might not be the best place to describe them, but I still think they need an entry point that's a little more accessible than what currently exists.

What I'd *love* to see is something along the lines of what I mention at the end of this post - a set of "gold standard" tools (validators and parsers) that developers can use to let them know that they're on the right track without needing to grok the entire RDFa specification.

I like the primer overall. I think it does a good job of showing the reason for RDFa and then gives just enough information to get a vague idea of the practice. You've no doubt come across this video tutorial which contains about the same level of information:

But it's easy to digest... Oohh, flashing lights! ;)

I don't think we should underestimate the issue of accessiblity. I see RDFa as reaching out to the "normal" world from the somewhat-airy heights of RDF. It needs to be a welcoming handshake to bring people on board.

Cheers.

Thanks for those resources Michael, good links.

The vocabulary (or excuse me, ontology ;) that I've put together only adds a few terms so 80/20 theory holds true in our case. These added terms all revolve around describing different kinds of attribution; source, yes, but what nature of source? A copy? Derived work? Inspiration?

A shame to have just missed VoCampOxford. That would have been a wonderful trip.

Cheers,

Rob
