Using online services for rdfa extraction and sparql query execution does seem like a logical extension of using the manifest for generating the test suite. But when things go wrong it can be difficult to tell what the issues are in the black boxes that you are using. For example take a look at: http://torrez.us/services/rdfa/?url=http://ben.adida.net/card As Diego and I discovered during the SWD review of the RDFa Syntax document it sure is nice to be able to look at a reference implementation to see how things are actually being done--particularly when it came to the Processing section. As a software developer I guess what I would like to see from a RDFa reference implementation is that: - the latest code is available from revision control - versions are released periodically as tarballs at w3, or to the python cheeseshop - the test suite implements the official test suite, and that it's easy to run and see what's working and what's not While I'm not a member of the RDFa taskforce, I'm an admirer from over on at the SWD working group and would be willing to help out Manu and/or others if needed. //Ed
