Re: Linked Data Glossary is published!

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
