Dear all, This press release must be relevant for this group: http://www.doi.org/news/VMF_project_announcement_090615.pdf This initiative seeks to create an extensive mapping between many vocabularies in the Digital Library world, such as: CIDOC CRM, DCMI, DOI, FRBR, MARC21, LOM, etc. etc. The mappings will be expressed in OWL/RDF. It will be known as the 'Vocabulary Mapping Framework'. This work is endorsed by the DOI Foundation. They put themselves a strong deadline, since they would like to announce the results officially at the British Library on November 9th, 2009. I suggest to the chairs of the Media Annotation WG to establish a liaison with this community, in order to share results and problems found, particularly related to the difficulty to express complex mappings in OWL/RDF, and/or to share approaches and tools. Cheers.
