Re: Linked Data Glossary published in SKOS

Thomas, 

to prove that this axiom is correctly treated, go to 
http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/PoolParty/sparql/w3c-linked-data-glossary 

and execute the following SPARQL query: 

PREFIX skos:<http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#> 
select * 
where 
{ 
?s a skos:Concept . 
?s skos:topConceptOf ?o . 
?s skos:broader ?x . 
} 

BTW: If you are in London at ISKO UK Conference, come and visit our talk about 
qSKOS – integrated quality management for SKOS thesauri 
http://www.iskouk.org/conf2013/abstracts.htm#Mader 

KR,

| Hello Andreas

| Thanks for providing the glossary as LOD.
| This raises a question : some concepts in this data, like
| "5StarLinkedOpenData", are both declared having a skos:broader (in that
| case, "LinkedOpenData"), and being "topConceptOf" the concept scheme. Is
| this intended ?

| SKOS says about such situations :

| "
| The property skos:hasTopConcept is, by convention, used to link a concept
| scheme to the SKOS concept(s) which are topmost in the hierarchical
| relations for that scheme. However, there are no integrity conditions
| enforcing this convention. (...) An application may reject such data but is
| not required to.
| "

| Should applications that consume SKOS coming from your tool ignore
| isTopConceptOf / hasTopConcept to determine root concepts ?

| Thanks

| | Hello,
| 

| | I thought this could also be interesting for the SKOS list:
| 

| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/w3c-linked-data-glossary
| 
| | W3C's Linked Data Glossary published in SKOS as LOD + SPARQL endpoint.
|

| | Hi Bernadette
| 

| | many thanks for your feedback on this what is highly appreciated!
| 

| | We have fetched the W3C LD Glossary now and loaded it into our open /
| | public
| | PoolParty Vocabulary (LD) Server - please see:
| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/w3c-linked-data-glossary.html
| 

| | (btw also other controlled vovabs to be found there:
| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/ )
| 

| | Furthermore we have created a few relations as well as we linked the
| | relevant
| | terms to DBpedia and the Semantic Web Thesaurus (
| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/semweb.html )
| 

| | So the current W3C LD glossary is available as SKOS and Linked Data now ;)
| 

| | What we were wondering is what license the glossary has - in the header
| | area
| | the (c) Copyright W3C is mentioned but I think this is a template of the
| | whole W3C system?
| 
| | BUT: what license to give this LD Glossary (I do think when we speak about
| | Open Data we should decide for an open license as CC-o or CC-BY??)
| 
| | FYI: at the moment we have used the Glossary URL for license info...
| 

| | Remark : in principle it would be easy to change the URIs to W3C URIs - but
| | then there would be a need to install a PPT on W3C servers / use respective
| | domain - if this sounds
| 
| | interesting just get in touch with me - sure we could find an interesting
| | solution here ;)
| 

| | So all on this list - please feel free to play around - your feedback is
| | very
| | welcome - best regards - martin
| 

| | PS: also created ADMS of the Glossary:
| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/w3c-linked-data-glossary/adms/0.2.html
| 
| | PPS: for sure there is also an endpoint in place now:
| | http://vocabulary.semantic-web.at/PoolParty/sparql/w3c-linked-data-glossary
| 
| | PPPS: CCd also 2 colleagues to this email

| | Hi Martin,
| 
| | <Added GLD WG to thread>
| 

| | Thanks for the offer and I think expanding LOD resources such as the
| | glossary
| | with other LOD (e.g., DBpedia, etc) is a great idea. One idea we have is to
| | publish the glossary in w3.org namespace using SKOS and following best
| | practices. Then encourage companies like yours to take the data and do what
| | you're proposing. One idea would be to link the glossary LOD to say
| | PoolParty's entry in the Open Data Directory to showcase your product,
| | expanding the virtuous circle.
| 

| | So I'm very happy you suggested it and am very happy to discuss ideas that
| | show LOD in action & showcase open data products & services ... a win for
| | everyone.
| 

| | Cheers,
| 
| | Bernadette

| | 
| 

| | | hope you are doing well?!
| | 
| 

| | | Congrats for this work, great step for LOD...
| | 
| 

| | | SWC would still be willing to contribute a free cloud service of
| | | PoolParty
| | | PPT Thesaurus server to bring this glossary to SKOS easily including
| | | concept
| | | URIs, an endpoint to query & thereby enable re-use as well as linking
| | | capability, so concepts could be linked to other sources as DBpedia
| | | beside
| | | others...so publishing the LD Glossary as LOD...
| | 
| 

| | | What do you think?
| | 
| 

| | | Looking forward to hearing from you on this again!

| | | | Hi,
| | | 
| | 
| 
| | | | On behalf of the editors, I'm pleased to announce the publication of
| | | | the
| | | | peer-reviewed Linked Data Glossary published as a W3C Working Group
| | | | Note
| | | | effective 27-June-2013.[1]
| | | 
| | 
| 

| | | | We hope this document serves as a useful glossary containing terms
| | | | defined
| | | | and used to describe Linked Data, and its associated vocabularies and
| | | | best
| | | | practices for publishing structured data on the Web.
| | | 
| | 
| 

| | | | The LD Glossary is intended to help foster constructive discussions
| | | | between
| | | | the Web 2.0 and 3.0 developer communities, encouraging all of us
| | | | appreciate
| | | | the application of different technologies for different use cases. We
| | | | hope
| | | | the glossary serves as a useful starting point in your discussions
| | | | about
| | | | data sharing on the Web.
| | | 
| | 
| 

| | | | Finally, the editors are grateful to David Wood for contributing the
| | | | initial
| | | | glossary terms from Linking Government Data , (Springer 2011). The
| | | | editors
| | | | wish to also thank members of the Government Linked Data Working Group
| | | | with
| | | | special thanks to the reviewers and contributors: Thomas Baker, Hadley
| | | | Beeman, Richard Cyganiak, Michael Hausenblas, Sandro Hawke, Benedikt
| | | | Kaempgen, James McKinney, Marios Meimaris, Jindrich Mynarz and Dave
| | | | Reynolds
| | | | who diligently iterated the W3C Linked Data Glossary in order to create
| | | | a
| | | | foundation of terms upon which to discuss and better describe the Web
| | | | of
| | | | Data. If there is anyone that the editors inadvertently overlooked in
| | | | this
| | | | list, please accept our apologies.
| | | 
| | 
| 

| | | | Thank you one & all!
| | |
