Hi Jarred,It seems to me that your work is similar or at least related to rNews [1]. I'm curious to know if you're looked at rNews when building the News Ontology. Do they complement each other, or are we re-inventing the wheel?Steph. [1] http://dev.iptc.org/rNews
Steph,Can one truly reinvent the wheel in a world of self describing linked data, at InterWeb scale? If need be, the vocabularies can be cross linked :-)

For each of the ontologies documented, we've included the motivation for the ontologies as well as some of the design decisions behind it. Also, you can get the rdf or ttl by adding the extension. For example, http://data.press.net/ontology/asset.rdf <http://data.press.net/ontology/asset.rdf>gives you the ontology described at http://data.press.net/ontology/asset/ ... Have a look at the ontology and tell us what you think. We think it is pretty good but feel free to point out our mistakes. We will fix it. Ask why we did it one way and not another. We will give you an answer. Paul Wilton of Ontoba has been working with us at the PA and has spelled out a lot of the guiding principles of this work at http://www.ontoba.com/blog.
