Semantic Web
This group was started at DrupalCon Barcelona 2007. It includes discussions on how to integrate the Semantic Web into Drupal and list the various effort of the community towards enabling RDF in Drupal.
Bristol Knowledge Unconference
Bristol Knowledge Unconference (BKU) 2009, will this year be held as an event at the Arnolfini in Bristol, UK on the 12th and 13th December 2009.
BKU is an unconference (an informal conference) all about Knowledge in it's different forms and perspectives.
BKU 2009 will have the subtitle "The Art of Knowledge", as working with knowledge is both an art and a science.
Short RDF code sprint in Paris
I happen to be going through Paris this weekend and I'd like to organize a last minute short code sprint in Paris on Monday 17th to review the RDF patches and polish them up. Apologies for the short notice, but if anyone wants to participate online, we'll be on IRC on #drupal-rdf. We'll see what we can do in one afternoon, but that's the only window I managed to squeeze in from my vacation before the code freeze on Sept 1st.
using sparql
Hi,
I am new to rdf and sparql and finding it hard to work on it in drupal as I could not find any tutorial for help.
I have downloaded the RDF, evoc,sparql, rdf cck modules. I have seen some powerpoints with page slide create sparql qurery with a box to write query and also provide end point. But I am not able to find it.
Am I missing any module here? Would really appreciate help on how to use sparql to query external databases.
Thanks

The video shows exciting possibilities - useful for getting others excited and involved in the discussion - and one hopes, the development.
RDF for Solr: Possible improvements
The Apache Solr RDF module is now in a state, where it can already, theoretically, be used. However, there is much room for improvement, so I'd like to discuss some possible ways to do this.
RDF integrated into web forms
Greetings,
I've been reading a lot about integrating RDFa into XHTML web pages. What I don't see much about is how to handle complex web forms. The idea would be to create text field and select list values that will print out submitted form data within meaningful RDFa containers. Can we do this in Drupal yet with any of the rdf modules? Can anybody share examples of the source code of a form that is RDFa enabled? My guess is that we can create very powerful forms doing so.
Cheers
Kevin
Localization & RDF
I'm just curious--how does RDF deal with descriptions about the same subject but in different languages, i.e. "hat" & "chapeau"? Will the content be in the language of choice but the RDF triple description in English? Is someone talking about this somewhere?
conStruct module now released (development version)
Hi everybody,
Drunken Monkey's discussion "RDF for Solr: Possible implementation strategies" leaded to a really interesting discussion about his SoC project. Considering that some of the users involved in that discussion were interested in two projects that I have been working on for few months, I thought that members of this group would be interested in having some more information about both projects.
Ontolog Forum: "Towards A Quantities and Units of Measure Ontology-based Standard"
Fri 19 Jun 2009 - a 2.5-Hr. session starting at 9:00am PDT / 12:00pm EDT / 6:00pm CEST / 5:00pm BST / 16:00 UTC ... a follow-up on one of
the key projects discussed during the recent Ontology Summit 2009. This panel discussion is entitled: "Towards A Quantities and Units of
Measure Ontology-based Standard" - Chair: Dr. Frank Olken (NSF) - Panelists: Mr. Howard Mason (ISO), Dr. Pat Hayes (IHMC), Dr. Robert
Raskin (NASA), Dr. Patrick Cassidy (MICRA), Mr. Dave McComb (Semantic Arts), Dr. Stan Huff (Univ. of Utah), Mr. David Price (Eurostep), Dr.
Simple Ontology for Drupal
Well, I don't know if you know about simpleontology module for Drupal 6.x, this module work with concepts, relations, tag and properties, this work with inferences.
The owner of this project is a chinesse student who published his document in chinesse language.
Well this project not is my owner.
This module is available at: http://code.google.com/p/simpleontology/
Pre requisites
- graphviz
There is an error in utils.php file under src directory at line 362, here there is a line with (%s) parameter, this should be ('%s').
RDF for Solr: Possible implementation strategies
(For information about my project, see here. Put shortly, it's about enabling Solr to index RDF data via drupal.)
Before starting the actual coding, even on prototypes, the basic options for implementing this will have to be discussed. At the moment, my mentors and I see the following three possibilities:

The Reasoning and Querying Unit at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI) of the National University of Ireland, Galway invites applications for a Research Assistant, Masters or PhD fellowship position in the area of Semantic Web technologies for Content Management Systems.
State of the RDF in Drupal core after the code sprint
The objectives of the sprint were to flesh out a lightweight basic design for integrating RDF into Drupal core and implement as much as possible the features we agree on during the sprint.

The yearly organized Linking Open Data Triplification Challenge awards prizes to the most promising triplifications of existing Web applications, Websites and data sets.
Alternative RDF in core implementation draft
I've just hacked together some function skeletons showing some of my ideas for the rdf in core stuff - it's working on top of schema information that modules may return for arbitrary classes, which modules may expose too. Other modules can then alter this information and so change rdf properties / classes associated with it.
Implementation draft: http://drupalbin.com/9322
I've also attached a file containing the draft.
This should allow us to build the token patch on top of it, but also
* it does lazy loading, so there is no need load stuff that isn't need anyway
Proposal for RDF mappings in core
Three key functions:
<?php
rdf_get_mapping($bundle); // @TODO this should be 'container' or something more generic than even bundle
?>From rdf.api.php in the development bzr repository we get definitions for our two hook functions:
<?php
/**
* Allow modules to define their own RDF mappings.
*
* @return
* An associative array of mappings. Most keys will be bundle names, but
* mappings can also be defined for non-bundles.
*/
function hook_rdf_mapping() {
return array(
Half way through the RDF code sprint - Google Announces Support for RDFa
We're half way through the sprint and we just heard that Google has announced support for RDFa. What a coincidence, surely another sign proving Drupal's heading in the right direction! Now is time for some update on the sprint.
During day 1, we decided to split the group into two in order to enable some parallel developement and to make use of the 2 main skills we had at hand: RDF semantics and Drupal coding.
