We are happy to announce a new RDFa test server for those interested in what the RDFa we're embedding in MusicBrainz will look like. This effort is far from complete, if you find something missing or incorrect we'd love to hear about it on the Music Ontology specification mailing list. One notable omission is that of the Advanced Relationships which we hope to cover eventually. But all the core entity types should include some valid RDFa. Also, there is some RDFa for the entities that have pagination (xhv:next, xhv:prev) and tabs (rdfs:seeAlso).
You can consume the RDFa with your favorite RDFa parser. For testing, we've been using the rapper command line tool and check.rdfa.info. If you have rapper installed, you can execute the following command to see the embedded RDFa for the release "Sex Machine" by James Brown as Turtle RDF:
rapper -i rdfa -o turtle http://mbz.catfishsmooth.net/release/aaa64bfa-2f93-46ee-b6aa-48baf0775b4b
This should work for any core entity. Give it a go and let us know!






Great to see this is up and

Hi Kurt This is just a quick
Hi Kurt
This is just a quick comment to say hello, and let you know that I've just started in the role of 'synthesis liaison' for the JiscEXPO programme, in addition to project managing one of the other JiscEXPO projects, LOCAH. There's more info at http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/jisc-ie/blog/2010/09/30/jiscexpo-programme-synthe... in case you're not already aware what the synthesis will be about. I'll be looking to pull out emerging themes and issues across the programme, so anything you can do to highlight these in your posts will be very valuable.
Had a quick look at the RDFa test server. Looks like you're making good progress.
Cheers for now, Adrian
