RDF consideration in this and how that would factor into it?
No I haven't considered RDF because what I'm trying to specify
follows a very simple model:
Documents that make distinct human readable statements and allow a
limited
classification inside the documents, by following document schemes,
and a
good classification outside, by following inheritance trees of
derived documents.
There is no meta language (in my current specification) describing
aspects of the
content of the documents and I cannot see an advantage in trying to
describe
ethics in a computer readable format.
Maybe I didn't understand why you suggest to use RDF?
I must be misunderstanding then. The website you linked to had this:
http://www.nongnu.org/esp/#XML_Examples - so I presumed some machine
readable thing going on under the covers.
You also mentioned the analogy to Java classes and interfaces, which
is something RDF represents as well.
Creative commons is only related to my project in that creative
commons
licenses could be an intersting search criteria. Web services that
offer
content under creative commons could, for example, advertise an
ethical
policy that guarantees all content to be available under creative
commons licenses.
What use of the Creative Commons plugin where you suggesting
specifically?
I mentioned CC because it parses embedded RDF data that is making a
statement about the resources available from that page. I thought
the connection between making statements about ethics could be made
similarly.
Apparently I'm missing the idea of what you're doing with Nutch and
how you are representing ethical policies.
