I can't answer for GR in general, but this does seem a good point to mention that an integration of Good Relations into schema.org is in progress. At schema.org, the launch syntax was HTML5 Microdata, but we have also been very involved in the discussions around RDFa 1.1, particularly the Lite subset, http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-lite/ and are supportive of the use of RDFa Lite as a syntax for schema.org descriptions. >From the Lite spec, "RDFa Lite consists of five simple attributes; vocab, typeof, property, resource, and prefix.". It also says "In XML-based languages, a document may still be labeled as a conforming RDFa Lite 1.1 document as long as the usage of the xmlns attribute is not used to declare CURIE prefixes." but as noted below, that is not a popular mechanism to use in HTML As for which format to use, I think that depends in large part on which consuming applications and services you have in mind. As far as Google is concerned, people around here have noticed that a few Google services already have some RDFa Lite capability, but that is still being improved so we've not made a lot of noise about that yet. See http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets and http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2012/07/introducing-structured-data-dashboard.html for supporting tools. cheers, Dan On 20 October 2012 06:38, David Wood <david@3roundstones.com> wrote: > Hi Richard, > > I didn't see a response either, but am hoping that Martin is just late in answering. > > Regards, > Dave > > > > > On Oct 20, 2012, at 04:33, richard.hancock@3kbo.com wrote: > >> Hi David and Martin, >> >> what was the outcome for your question?
