TYPO3 needs to support the Semantic Web in the core / RDFA / Web 3.0
0%
Description
I came across a video about Tim Berners Lee on the Semantic Web [1].
After that I jumped to an Introduction video [2] and then to an RDFa video [3]. After that I found this video showing RDFa in Drupal [4].
Drupal is raising thousands of dollars to integrate RDF semantics into the core [5]: The RDF code sprint will focus on Drupal core and aim at integrating RDF semantics in it.
1. Extend Fields API to integrate RDF mappings for each field instance. The semantics of a field can differ from a bundle to another. This can be stored either in the existing settings property or by adding a rdf_mappings property to the Field Instance objects.
2. Modify the Fields UI (contrib) to allow RDF mappings editing.
3. Define the appropriate mappings for the core modules, based on the RDF core mapping proposal.
4. Patch core modules with the mappings defined above.
5. Export these mappings in RDFa via the theme layer and keep it as generic as possible in order to ease the work of the themers.
6. Write tests for RDF in core.
7. Identify other non-fieldable entities in core which could benefit from being RDF-ized, and see how to annotate them. Comment is one example. Terms also, though they might become fieldable.
8. RSS 1 (RDF) in core. Arto volunteered to get started with that.
That's all well and good. More semantics on the web is good for all of us.
Google announced support for RDFa [6] data in may [7] an Yahoo has been indexing it for over a year already.
Benni wrote his diploma thesis on the Semantic Web.
What's the status of Web 3.0 and the TYPO3 core?
