[foaf-dev] mapping OpenSocial schemas into RDF

Hi folks

For those interested in the schema-soup of the social Web, ... I've 
started some work on mapping OpenSocial's schema into RDF. At the moment 
it is just a skeleton of class/property associations; I've not done the 
hard piece which is the value contraints (rdfs:range) for each property, 
nor the various enumerated values they're defining. The mapping is 
handled by a piece of .js code that maps their .js API into a RDFa/HTML 
schema doc. Details at: http://danbri.org/words/2008/06/26/349

BTW one side-effect of this is that ultimately it should allow for any 
OpenSocial data to be expressed within ordinary HTML pages, and 
therefore be indexed by tools like the Google social graph API...

feedback welcomed,

Dan
