Recipe for Embedding RDFa in ANY MediaWiki Wiki

Dear all:

Based on a patch by Toby Inkster, we developed a recipe for publishing
GoodRelations-compliant rich meta-data in RDFa for any business using  a
*standard* MediaWiki wiki.

The recipe shows how any business with access to a MediaWiki instance 
can publish detailed descriptions of its opening hours, payment options,
products, and prices.

The recipe is at

http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/RDFaInMediaWiki

The same pattern can of course be used with any other vocabulary.

Since MediaWiki by default uses "cool" URIs for its pages, the resulting 
hash URIs for conceptual elements are surprisingly good-looking ;-)

Best wishes

Martin Hepp and Andreas Wechselberger
