It's a non-starter for Web developers. So we have JSON-LD where LD means: Labelled and Directed :-) Hopefully matter closed, since the real goal is aiding the explosion of structured data across the Web via a JSON based syntax that could be more attractive to a specific Web Developer profile. Linked Data will be generated and consumed by those who seeks its specific benefits. Having a structured data substrate makes the aforementioned pursuit exponentially easier. -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen President& CEO OpenLink Software Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter/Identi.ca: kidehen
