RE: Encoding of ODRL in JSON

I admit, I hadn't noticed that the URLs were different (and specific to JSON). I suppose that (somewhere else?) sameAs definitions could be asserted between these and the equivalent ODRL URLs. But I don't really see the benefit of having different URLs for each encoding (XML, JSON, OWL, YAML ...)? So, unless there is one, I vote that we have a single set of URLs for use within all ODRL encodings.

I didn't think that JSON-LD could only support a single vocab. If that was true, then there would be no particular benefit of using the JSON-LD context mechanism, since then we couldn't use, say, RightsML specific vocabularies or PLUS specific mixed in with ODRL specific. Again, I'm far from a JSON-LD expert, so those who are please chime in where I'm going wrong.

I thought that we wanted to establish a JSON encoding of the ODRL model which takes advantage of the advantages of JSON, but that - to the greatest extent possible - it should be equivalent to the expression of a particular ODRL construct as any other encoding?

Regards,

Stuart

There's no reason why the terms can't use identical URIs to the OWL/RDFS schema. However, it would certainly make authoring easier (for both JSON and otherwise) if there was a single namespace prefix URI.
