There is now a W3C Multimedia Semantics Incubator Group, you may find useful material on their mailing list etc. http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/mmsem/ MusicBrainz is probably the best-known system, although last I heard was they were backing away from RDF. http://musicbrainz.org/ Amongst my bookmarks I also found: Ontolog http://www.idi.ntnu.no/~heggland/ontolog/ MusiK http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=26378&group_id=89874 Although the usual transport for podcasting, RSS 2.0, is a lost cause when it comes to semantics, there is an "enclosure" module for RSS 1.0 (RDF) that may be useful: http://www.xs4all.nl/~foz/mod_enclosure.html In the same area there are also Atom, Yahoo! Media RSS and iTunes RSS which all use namespaced XML, so are possible candidates for the GRDDL mechanism: http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/pie/ http://search.yahoo.com/mrss http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl/ When retrieving audio from a HTTP server, it's usually thought of a big binary one-URI object, but with a bit of hackery it's possible to address media files with more granular URIs, see: http://weblog.infoworld.com/udell/2004/05/18.html Cheers, Danny. -- http://dannyayers.com
