Fwd: Three documents by Web Annotation Working Group are W3C Proposed Recommendations (Call for Review)

Guys, we have made it!

The next important job for all of us is to have enough (hopefully positive:-) votes for the review. Please, all of you should call out to your respective AC representative. I took the liberty to cc this mail to all persons who were active in the group at some point in the past and who are part of a member organization…

Thanks to all!

Ivan

> ----------------------------------------------
> Web Annotation Data Model
> W3C Proposed Recommendation 17 January 2017
> ----------------------------------------------
> This version:
>  https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/PR-annotation-model-20170117/ <https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/PR-annotation-model-20170117/>
> Latest published version:
>  https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/ <https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/>
> 
> Abstract:
> Annotations are typically used to convey information about a resource or associations between resources. Simple examples include a comment or tag on a single web page or image, or a blog post about a news article.
> 
> The Web Annotation Data Model specification describes a structured model and format to enable annotations to be shared and reused across different hardware and software platforms. Common use cases can be modeled in a manner that is simple and convenient, while at the same time enabling more complex requirements, including linking arbitrary content to a particular data point or to segments of timed multimedia resources.
> 
> The specification provides a specific JSON format for ease of creation and consumption of annotations based on the conceptual model that accommodates these use cases, and the vocabulary of terms that represents it.
> 
> Status of This Document:
> This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at https://www.w3.org/TR/ <https://www.w3.org/TR/>.
> 
> This specification was derived from the Open Annotation Community Group's outcomes, and details of the differences between the two are maintained in the Acknowledgment appendix.
> 
> This document was published by the Web Annotation Working Group as a Proposed Recommendation. This document is intended to become a W3C Recommendation. The W3C Membership and other interested parties are invited to review the document and send comments to public-annotation@w3.org <mailto:public-annotation@w3.org> (subscribe, archives) through 14 February 2017. Advisory Committee Representatives should consult their WBS questionnaires. Note that substantive technical comments were expected during the Candidate Recommendation review period that ended 20 December 2016.
> 
> Please see the Working Group's implementation report.
> 
> Publication as a Proposed Recommendation does not imply endorsement by the W3C Membership. This is a draft document and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to cite this document as other than work in progress.
> 
> This document was produced by a group operating under the 5 February 2004 W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the deliverables of the group; that page also includes instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy.

> Abstract:
> The Web Annotation Vocabulary specifies the set of RDF classes, predicates and named entities that are used by the Web Annotation Data Model [annotation-model]. It also lists recommended terms from other ontologies that are used in the model, and provides the JSON-LD Context and profile definitions needed to use the Web Annotation JSON serialization in a Linked Data context.
