Re: Turtle file for DQV

 

Hi all 

It is an interesting thing that after updating our BP document to have a
locale neutral perspective we are including a lot of info in different
languages. 

I completely agree that it is a kind of bias to have only one language
(English) as the "locale neutral language", but the document has a a lot
of literals (the majority of properties) in labels, comments, etc. For
the machines that would process the document, it does not matter. For
humans that would use the document as a kind of user manual, the
document will have a lot of info that does not make sense to each one,
maybe making more difficult to read the document as a whole. 

 How many (and which) languages, would be the minimum (and reasonable)
necessary to have a good document that could be understood by a great
number of persons? 

Do we need all of these things in the ttl file or we could have part of
these things in another place? 

Just thinking. I agree but I also disagree. 

Best Regards, 
Laufer
