I've almost completed an RDF XML syntax - to - triples stylesheet. This is based on the XML syntax document for RDF published by the W3C, which contains examples of syntax and corresponding triples. Although several XML to triples XSLT stylesheets have been produced in the past, this is the first (I believe) that supports collections and reification. The ability to extract triples from RDF is key to aggregating RDF and building graphs that span beyond a single document. The next stage should be to extract all the RDF and triples from the W3C published test cases (around 90? in all) and make sure that the stylesheet is 100% compatible. James Carlyle

You can now submit your own sources to the source catalog. We should be along to index and analyse it shortly after.

I've just added a new feature to the list of sources. Each source lists some of the things that are described in that source document. Now, each of these has a link that lets you see what other sources are describing the same thing. For example, if you look at the entry for my FOAF you'll see some of the people I know. Next to each of them is an [other sources] link which takes you to a list of other sources that refer to those people. Here's the list of sources that refer to Mark Pilgrim.

At the moment the spider is looking for People, RSS channels and Documents so you can explore the networks between these resources. I'll explain more about the patterns that are used to match these things soon.
