RDF
A Thesaurus Interchange Format for the Semantic Web is now available
A product of the SWAD-Europe project, the Thesaurus Interchange Format (TIF) enables the development, integration and deployment of thesauri on the semantic web. The TIF is an RDF schema, based on the concept-oriented thesaurus model.Something like this would be useful. There are lots of glossaries, thesauri, and vocabulary lists on the Web and making them more accessible and interactive would make them more useful. For example, making the GSAFD available via OAI was a good idea. Those folks are thinking. I also like that the GSAFD is available for download.
