Hi, I'm one of the devs on my current project, SerenA ( http://www.serena.ac.uk ). For the last 6 months, we have been building an RDF store representative of our users. I am responsible for mapping user profile information into the FOAF Ontology, and I have 2 questions to ask: 1 - Capturing previous and current work status. i.e. I may have once worked for the CIA, but I currently work on the SerenA project. How would I capture that using FOAF? For the latter, perhaps: http://www.example.com/Rob_Stewart <foaf:Project> http://www.example.com/serena or http://www.example.com/Rob_Stewart <foaf:Organization> http://www.example.com/serena But... how would I capture that I worked for the CIA between 2004 and 2006, say ? (and should I be using Organization or Project ? ) ------------------- 2 - Strength of the foaf:knows predicate How would I capture the different levels of my foaf:know relationships? Say, I shared an office with someone called Tim, and I stumbled across Alison once a month in the coffee room. I know both, but I am wanting to know how you would represent this with FOAF? I *do* want the foaf:knows predicate for both objects, but it's not telling the full story... ? Regards, -- Rob
