Attention RDF

Purpose: express "attention" data model in RDF, so the stuff can be easily used on the Semantic Web (irrespective of the source format). Once a reasonable vocabulary/model has been derived, GRDDL-style interop will be possible.

The Format Schema described at Attention.xml could be used directly, interpreting the types of list items as RDFS/OWL classes (Group, Blog/Feed/Site etc) and their properties as RDF properties. However there is considerable overlap with common RDF/OWL vocabularies so it seems reasonable to reuse these where possible.

In the tables below, where the Attention.xml term seems a good candidate, the prefix att: will be used (for consistency with informal conventions, camelCase is used below for the name).

Classes

Attention.xml lists the following entities:

Attention.xml

Group

Blog/Feed/Site

Post/Item/Page

Properties

Attention.xml lists the following properties:

Attention.xml

title

url

alturls

etag

lastupdated

dateadded

dateremoved

lastread

readtimes

userfeedtitle

rel/xfn

rev/votelink

Notes

(a) rdf:Resource = a URI used in rdf:about or rdf:resource
(b) Attention.xml has containership where the items can be added and removed. The corresponding properties have date values, so there shouldn't be a problem with having an item that's been both added and removed.
(c) userfeedtitle should probably be expressed as a more complex structure, maybe involving foaf:Person
