Hello,

We have been discussing, in the  N2 development community [1], a draft  
specification for serialising RDF in JSON[2], and would appreciate your  
feedback on it.

The structure of an RDF/JSON document looks like this
{
RESOURCE URI => {
    PROPERTY URI =>
      [
                                     {
     type: ("literal","uri","bnode"),
     value: (the value of the object),
     lang: (language code - optional),
     datatype: (URI of the datatype - optional)
        },
     ...
      ],
   ...
  },
  ...
}

If you publish RDF, would you consider publishing this RDF/JSON  
serialisation, and is it clear and unambiguous how to do so?

If you read RDF from the web in your applications and scripts, would this  
be a convenient serialisation for you?



Thanks in advance,

Keith Alexander

ps: If you would like to try the format out, you can convert RDF/XML into  
RDF/JSON here: http://convert.test.talis.com/
