Re: Request for Help: US Government Linked Data

Dave,

IMHO, the W3C Cookbook methods do not go far enough to define the short-term strategy game of which Americans are so fond.  The Federal Government must plan Social Policy from ante Meridian (AM) to post Meridian (PM).  Playing statistical games with higher frequencies or modified time spans is fun, but it is not Science (a Free Energy Calculation).

Sorry to say, for reasons given, that StratML seems the better choice for Strategic Policy Representation (rather than SKOS and RDF).

Hi all,

I take it back: Don't just comment.

We need to introduce pull requests into the Project Open Data documents that add Linked Data terms, examples and guidelines to the existing material.

There are a few scattered RDFa references in relation to schema.org, but most of the Linked Data material has been removed from the documents.  We need to get this back in existing Linked Data efforts within the US Government might very well be hurt.

Please help.  Thanks.

Regards,
Dave
