Web Schemas Task Force, chaired by R.V. Guha (Google).
Here is your opportunity to participate in some very important work at the W3C without a W3C membership.
From the wiki page:
This is the main Wiki page for W3C’s Semantic Web Interest Group Web Schemas task force.
The taskforce chair is R.V.Guha (Google).
In scope include collaborations on mappings, tools, extensibility and cross-syntax interoperability. An HTML Data group is nearby; detailed discussion about Web data syntax belongs there.
See the charter for more details.
The group uses the public-vocabs@w3.org mailing list
- See public-vocabs@w3.org archives
- To subscribe, send a message to public-vocabs-request@w3.org with Subject: subscribe (see lists.w3.org for more details).
- If you are new to the W3C community, you will need to go through the archive approval process before your posts show up in the archives.
- To edit this wiki, you’ll need a W3C account; these are available to all
Groups who maintain Web Schemas are welcome to use this forum as a feedback channel, in additional to whatever independent mechanisms they also offer.
The following from the charter makes me think that topic maps may be relevant to the task at hand:
Participants are encouraged to use the group to take practical steps towards interoperability amongst diverse schemas, e.g. through development of mappings, extensions and supporting tools. Those participants who maintain vocabularies in any format designed for wide-scale public Web use are welcome to also to participate in the group as a ‘feedback channel’, including practicalities around syntax, encoding and extensibility (which will be relayed to other W3C groups as appropriate).
