At the moment Annozilla (my Mozilla client) is confused by the RDF it's
getting back from requesting a list of annotations for a page, presumably
because of the changes to the schema.
Annozilla iterates over all RDF resources assuming them to be annotations.
The new RDF served up includes things like
<example.org:huh
xmlns:example.org="http://example.org/">
<r:Description>
<a:Email
r:resource="mailto:matthew+test@mjwilson.demon.co.uk" />
<a:Family>Wilson</a:Family>
<a:Given>Matthew</a:Given>
</r:Description>
</example.org:huh>
which appears to be causing additional resources to be created. I can hack
around the problem by ignoring resources without an <a:body/> property (is
that right right term? sorry, I'm not very good at RDF), but I don't know
whether that's the right solution or just a workaround.
The bookmarklet servlet seems to be confused as well. Any advice?
