W3C RDF

The case of the next scribe

Materials:

extract.xsl

XSLT thingy to extract RDF from.

list of scribes

(sorry, team confidential)

scribe list in RDF

also: live version, generated dynamically from the data and the XSLT script
see also: XSLT form

Makefile

instructions for running the XSLT script locally

list schema

first, rest, empty, List
(compare with the _1 _2 model

in the RDF M&S spec (which has no way to signal

the end of a list, by the way), and

TimBL's definitive list construct no anchor, btw)

rules

for use with jsprolog thingy; it takes a dummed down version of the RDF

Notes:

• I tried to actually extract the next scribe from that data using prolog, but the prolog interpreter I used doens't have string comparison support, so I'm stopping for today.
• I cheated on a couple other namespaces:

  xmlns:card="mid:2000-07-12-vcardish-stuff@w3.org"
  

  as in aPerson --card:mailbox--> mailto:foo@bar ; compare with vCard? (icalendar notes) foaf stuff?

  xmlns:mtg="mid:2000-07-12-meeting-stuff@w3.org"
  

  as in aMeeting --mtg:scribe--> aPerson

Note the careful distinction between a person and a name by which a person is called, ala:

first(L, M1), date(M1, D1), scribe(M1, P1), called(P1, N1)

That's a modelling point we really should make, e.g. to the dublin core modelling group.
