Congratulations!

My comments:

- <http://code.google.com/p/void-impl/source/browse/trunk/liftSSM/SSM2void.xslt> uses void:uriPattern instead of void:uriRegexPattern and so does the example output under <http://rdfs.org/ns/void-guide#sec_4_3_Publishing_tools>.
I really like the addition of void:uriRegexPattern!

- I'm not so sure about the correctness of the usage of dcterms:format under <http://rdfs.org/ns/void-guide#sec_1_5_Technical_description_features>. First, dcterms:format requires a resources rather than a literal. Then, this would mean that the void:TechnicalFeature *has* this format, so it would be a document, not that it *is* that format. How about:
:DBpedia void:feature <http://dbpedia.org/resource/RDF/XML> .

- My questions on <http://code.google.com/p/void-impl/issues/detail?id=19&can=1> still stand. ;-)

- I hope there will be some alignment with SIOC in the future (see also <http://groups.google.com/group/sioc-dev/browse_thread/thread/da8a2d4c1f4adf38/07370433943f906d?show_docid=07370433943f906d>). What I'm especially after is using sioc:has_container instead of dcterms:isPartOf to go from the page of an item in the dataset to the description of the dataset (which would be a sioc:Container as well).
I think I will just do this for now (for the project I'm working on) since I'm providing discovery via sitemap.xml anyway.

Cheers,
  Simon
