Re: Linked Media: Extending Linked Data for Updates and arbitrary Media Formats using the REST Principles

Dear Barry,

thanks for your comments. Linked Open Services indeed seems very related technology-wise, but it seems to have a different motivation: while our goal is that of managing and updating Linked Data and treat content and metadata uniformly and applying REST to Linked Data, Linked Open Services is about linking services and applying Linked Data to REST. Or am I confused here?

Maybe it would be worthwhile to combine both approaches, we will look into it. :-)
