Hello All, I'm developing an application that uses RDF, RDFa, Microformats and so on - it's called MySemanticProfile and intended for people who're lazy enough not to edit their foaf.rdf by hand ;) One of the goals of the project is to make it easy to create profiles with lables and stuff in multiple languages, another goal is to have RDFa support for it. I approached this by creating pages for each language (substituted with values in default language if language-specific labels are not defined) and interlinked them with rdfs:seeAlso links so english page, for example has <a rel="rdfs:seeAlso" href="?lang=ru">ru</a> if russian version also exists. This way there are multiple pages with majority of lables for the data only in one language, but with all other triples duplicated, this way when all these language-specific graphs are merged, it is supposed to be a subset of the graph defined in a source RDF/XML file the data is based on. I wonder if this is reasonable and if there any problems with data duplication or anything else in this approach. Here're the exmples of the pages (my profile): http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/profile/ - default english version http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/profile/?lang=ru - russian version with some english names (where no russian version exists) http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/sergey.rdf - RDF/XML source (contains much more facts, interface will never know how to display all the info) I'm relatively new to RDFa (and Microformats) and will appreciate any feedback. Thank you, Sergey P.S. feel free to try it out, I hope it will be the easiest way to maintain a personal profile in all the forms accepted on the net, meanwhile, let me know if you'll have troubles with it ;) -- Sergey Chernyshev http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/
