Let me turn the question around, if you don't mind. Since we began the SKOS work in the SWAD-Europe project 5 years ago, a lot has happened. We now have a standardised RDF query language (SPARQL) including a Web (HTTP/REST) protocol and supporting formats (XML, JSON). W3C also has recently renewed work on SPARQL. See the SPARQL Working Group wiki page here - http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/wiki/Main_Page Charter - http://www.w3.org/2009/01/sparql-charter Proposed features - http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/wiki/Category:Features - Is there anything in the old SKOS API that you couldn't do in SPARQL? - Is there anything *useful* in the old SKOS API that you couldn't do in SPARQL? - Is there anything useful in the old SKOS API that could fit into the proposed features for SPARQL 2.0? - Is there any implementation experience about updating SKOS API-based systems to use SKOS "2009" which should be written down in the wiki http://esw.w3.org/topic/SkosDev ? - Would publishing that advice as a snapshotted W3C Note instead make any practical difference? (eg. a precise reference is needed for government agencies commissioning software?) Thanks for any detail, cheers, Dan -- http://danbri.org/
