Dear TF, I've read RDFa FAQ [1] and this is my comments: - 2.1.1. Can I use RDFa on any HTML version? [[ The intention of the RDF in XHTML Taskforce is that RDFa can be used with every (X)HTML version. This is, however, still an issue that is in state of flux. ]] We may add: "Actually we support XHTML from version 1.1 [2] with specific module for metainformation [3] and attributes [4]. (link to the page with DTD declaration and an example 1.1 and 2.0 both). We are also working for an HTML implementation." I think to new HTML WG [5], we already have Dan and more IWA/HWG from Semantic Activity, now I've an high working time, so I can join it later, but I may have to ask to my AC). - 4. RDFa in 10s Elaborating Steve's words: [[ Here's one: When you do a search on the Web for Pascal, the search engine doesn't know if you mean the programming language, the philosopher, or any of a dozen other possibilities. Amongst other things RDFa helps the search engine work out what a page is about. ]] I wrote on a document regarding the power of Semantic Web (translation from Italian can be more good): (...) With exponential growth of Web, search engines are most importants, it - should - found in few seconds things that we ask. Well, Text or Hyper-Search engines do not answer with a single or sure result. It give us a huge number of results hoping that the right answer it's on the first page. A Semantic Search Engine, instead, computing pages with a Semantic Layer (with RDFa, of course) can elaborate good our querys and return only one result, or a little range of consistent and correct anwers. One little note on hGRDDL [6], few editorials: On first example DTD can be XHTML 1.0 Strict (Be Strict to be cool [7]) instead Transitional and on second example DTD can be the specific XHTML+RDFa.
