[foaf-dev] RECommendations Ontology - a vocabulary to formalize preferences in the Semantic Web

Hi,

I discovered per accident the RECommendations Ontology (not to be 
confused with the Recommendation Ontology[2] ;) ). A vocabulary for 
expressing preferences and further concepts to enable personalized 
recommmendations.
On a first view, this ontology looks quite interesting. I'm just 
wondering myself why I didn't get aware of this vocabulary earlier, when 
I searched for an ontology for proper modelling user profiles (and 
laterely pushed forward the Cognitive Charactertics Ontology[3] :\ ).
It would be quite interesting to see this ontology in action. I didn't 
find any good reference for that.
The only misconception I noticed so far, is the usage of rdf:type for 
addressing the subject of a preference. The preference is quite seldom 
also its subject e.g., the preference is not a film, however, I can have 
certain preferences in specific films.

Is anyone of this list aware of this project and/or could provide 
further information about it?

Cheers,


Bob
