Name : Phil Archer
Email : phil@philarcher.org
MIME media type name : Application
MIME subtype name : Standards Tree -powder-s+xml
Required parameters :
Optional parameters :
charset
Encoding considerations : 7bit
Security considerations :
RFC 3023, section 10, reviews the security considerations for XML Media
Types in general. application/powder-s+xml does not add to or subtract
from such considerations.
Interoperability considerations :
POWDER-S documents are OWL ontologies and as such have a good deal of
content related to semantics alongside the actual data. The new media
type is necessary to identify that POWDER extends the formal semantics
of RDF. If processed by RDF/OWL tools that do not implement the
extension, the data will be largely meaningless, but not harmful.
Published specification :
Protocol for Web Description Resources (POWDER): Description Resources
(http://www.w3.org/TR/powder-dr/). See Section 4. Protocol for Web
Description Resources (POWDER): Formal Semantics
(http://www.w3.org/TR/powder-formal/) specifies the semantic extension
referred to in answer to question 7.
Applications which use this media :
Any RDF/OWL application will be able to process the data up to a point.
An application that implements the semantic extension for full
processing is nearing completion at http://transonto.sourceforge.net/.
This uses a small amount of custom-written code but depends largely on
established tools: Jena and Pellet.
Additional information :
1. Magic number(s) : None
2. File extension(s) : None (.xml is sufficient)
3. Macintosh file type code : None
4. Object Identifiers: None
The current draft of the relevant document is at Last Call but the WG is
not expecting to make a separate call for implementations, preferring to
seek transition to W3C Proposed Recommendation later this month. In
addition to this request for application/powder-s+xml, we are also
submitting a request to register text/powder+xml and the registration of
'describedby' as a relationship type to be included at
http://www.iana.org/assignments/link-relations/link-relations.xhtml
