Re: [foaf-dev] Extending foaf with bio and rel

Kevin,
         Thanks for the help.  I had the wrong path for dc.  And I did have it inside a foaferson tag.  Now it doesn’t like the way I specify my parents.  I suppose I should add some information to specify a name for my parents and maybe some more information.  And does father and mother need to be capitalized, which doesn’t seem that it would cause the next problem to show up.   It says that ref:resource is not allowed in the rdfseeAlso tag.  Like this:

<bio:father>
    <foaf:Person>
            <rdfs:seeAlso rdf:resource="http://brucewhealton.us/BruceWhealton2/foaf.rdf"/>
    </foaf:Person>
</bio:father>
<bio:mother>
     <foaf:Person>
         <rdfs:seeAlso rdf:resource="http://whealton.info/KathleenWhealton/foaf.rdf" />
     </foaf:Person>
</bio:mother>

I couldn’t find too many examples of files that use this vocabulary or how to specifically look for vocabs that extensively use a particular vocabulary.  I’d like to see some files that use rel also and doac – description of a career, which might be good for my web development clients.
Thanks,
Bruce



Bruce, 

The first questions are:
What errors are you receiving from the validator?
What else do you have in the RDF (have you defined your prefixes, is the bio:Birth inside a foaf:Person, &c.)?

When I added the prefixes for the namespaces, it validated just fine.

<rdf:RDF
xmlns:bio="http://purl.org/vocab/bio/0.1/" 
xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
<bio:Birth>
<dc:date>1966-04-22</dc:date>
<bio:place rdf:resource="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Britain,_CT" />
</bio:Birth>
</rdf:RDF>

Cheers,
Kevin

  Hello,
          Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong with
  specifying the date for my birth using the bio vocabulary?
  The RDF validator does not like several things about this.  I'll paste what
  I have:

  <bio:Birth>
     <dc:date>1966-04-22</dc:date>
     <bio:place rdf:resource="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Britain,_CT"
  />
  </bio:Birth>

  I'd like to use several vocabularies in a genealogy application using
  MediaWiki and the Semantic MediaWiki bundle.  So, I'm testing how the
  properties need to be specified.
  Thanks,
  Bruce
