[Fwd: Call for Review: HTTP Vocabulary in RDF Working Draft]

The WAI Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group (ERT WG) has released 
the First Public Working Draft of HTTP Vocabulary in RDF, which 
describes a representation of HTTP vocabulary in RDF. The terms defined 
by the document allow HTTP headers that have been exchanged between a 
client and a server to be recorded in RDF format.

Please find the announced call for review below, we welcome feedback 
from developers and researchers who may have interest in this work.

Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,

For those who are interested in Semantic Web technologies to support Web
accessibility evaluations, the WAI Evaluation and Repair Tools Working
Group (ERT WG) [1] has published a first Working Draft of the document
"HTTP Vocabulary in RDF":
  - <http://www.w3.org/TR/HTTP-in-RDF/>

The document HTTP Vocabulary in RDF describes a representation of the
HTTP terms in RDF. It provides a mechanism to record HTTP information
that has been exchanged between a client and a server in RDF format and
can be used together with other RDF vocabularies such as the Evaluation
and Report Language 1.0 (EARL 1.0) [2].

This first public Working Draft of the document HTTP Vocabulary in RDF
was published on 20 December 2006. It is expected to be published as a
W3C Working Group Note after further review and refinement, potentially
upon the next publication. The document "How WAI Develops Accessibility
Guidelines through the W3C Process" describes the milestones and
opportunities to contribute to W3C Working Drafts:
  - <http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/w3c-process>

The Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group (ERT WG) encourages
feedback about this document, HTTP Vocabulary in RDF, by developers and
researchers who have interest in software-supported evaluation and
validation of Web sites. In particular, the group is looking for
feedback about the approach, as well as about the completeness and
maturity of the document. Please send comments to the (publicly visible)
ERT WG mailing list [3] by 31 January, 2007:
  - <public-wai-ert@w3.org>

Please let us know if you have any questions. Additional information on
the ERT Working Group is available at:
  - <http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/>

Note: This message may be circulated to other lists, avoiding
cross-postings where possible.

Thank you in advance for your comments.
