Lest I be accused of nonconstructive criticism, a route to improving the vocab would be to properly align CommonTag with existing ontologies by dropping ctag:taggedDate altogether. Of all the terms defined by CommonTag, ctag:taggedDate is probably the one with least value to most publishers, so this change would not only help align CommonTag with other ontologies, but also serve to simplify and streamline the spec. The description of tagging *events* could then be considered an "advanced" use case, not directly supported by CommonTag. But given that CommonTag would then be compatible with Richard Newman's ontology, and MOAT, SCOT, etc, advanced users could go outside CommonTag to add this extra meaning to their tags. -- Toby Inkster <tai@g5n.co.uk>
