FWIW and quite informally, I've been unable to find much RDFa/Microdata
content using it. I've found < 50 domains using linkedmodel.org-based RDF
types, less using qudt.org (there's some of former on both linkedmodel.organd
w3.org). I've not studied RDF/XML, Turtle, JSON-LD etc etc use. I don't
take this as any reflection on the quality of the vocabulary, which looks
pretty useful...
