Quick work! I've noticed there's no class labels, yet. Would be handy eg, foaf:Agent etc.

Definitions, eg.
eg.
foaf:phone skos:prefLabel "phone number"@en"
foaf:phone rdfs:comment "A phone number, specified using fully qualified tel: URI scheme (refs: http://www.w3.org/Addressing/schemes.html#tel)."

Translating those would make it much easier for people to use these schemas. Making a big batch of useful labels to be translated in one go seems like a really good idea, although I'm sure you can feel the feaping creatures looming.

Thanks, Christopher and Antoine.

Language labels have been added for the current English labels.  I'm not sure 
what kind of rdfs:comments might be useful for translators, so I didn't add any 
yet.  Perhaps that will become obvious.

Also, the HTML file now lists all the labels in a table.

Antoine, I look forward to seeing a French translation!  Thanks heaps.

The latest version (20110606) is now up at:
   http://purl.org/net/prototypo/labels

Regards,
Dave

I would go further and suggest that you cut and paste in the property&  class 
definitions to provide a single file which can be translated to enable core parts 
of the semweb in other languages.

It's quite easy for a volunteer to just translate all the xml:lang="en" bits 
into other languages.

Maybe I'll do a "en-gb". "Centre", "Organisation", "Pavement" etc. *grin*

May I suggest that you add language tags, and possibly later extend this vocab

Hi all,

I would like to announce the availability of a small, but hopefully useful, 
vocabulary consisting of singular, plural and inverse singular human-readable 
labels for some common RDF vocabularies.  The idea is to provide a way for user 
interfaces to look up labels for RDF classes and properties where they were not 
provided by their vocabulary's author.

The Common RDF Vocabulary Labels Vocabulary is available via content 
negotiation at:
   http://purl.org/net/prototypo/labels

The HTML description needs some work, but I need to play with my kids now.  The 
Turtle is probably the easiest version to look at for the moment:
   http://purl.org/net/prototypo/labels-20110603.ttl

Have fun and please tell me if I should add any other labels.

Regards,
Dave
