Hi all, http://openannotation.org/spec/core/core.html#BodyEmbed suggests to use dc:format. I was wondering whether it'd be okay to use dcterms:format instead? My reasoning is simply that I predominantly use dcterms, and don't wish to introduce dc (elements). Tough luck? I find cnt to be (unnecessarily?) cumbersome in RDFa when used with oa:hasBody and cnt:ContentAsText. Use case: representing comments on a webpage which include HTML. This forces me to add markup that's only for machine consumption i.e., <span property="dcterms:format" content="text/html"></span></div>, and possibly even <span property="cnt:characterEncoding" content="utf-8"></span>, <span property="dcterms:language" content="en"></span>. I think we can agree that the above information is not very "interesting" to a human-reader on a webpage. Leaving dcterms:format would mean that the consumer has to further process - I'm okay with this if there is no sensible alternative. Are there any workarounds people employing? How does the following look: <div rel="oa:hasBody"> <div about="http://example.org/foo" property="dcterms:description" datatype="rdf:HTML"> <p>foo</p> </div> </div> [Note that the rdf:HTML datatype is left as non-normative in RDF 1.1: http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-concepts/#section-html ] Thoughts? Thanks, -Sarven http://csarven.ca/#i
