Re: [lojban] Call for participation - Jorne




Thanks for the note of support!

Actually, I don't have a lot of time to work on it either at the moment. I'm in the midst of writing a Java book to be published early this summer, so that's got the bulk of my time. But I do have some N3/RDF syntax and vocabulary for the gismu already. I don't think I'll be able to put anything up on the site for awhile, perhaps not until April/May and until I've tested it thoroughly.

But stay tuned...

I created an open-source project on Sourceforge called Jorne ( http://jorne.org ). Its purpose is to create an N3/RDF ontology for Lojban, and to identify and tag any semantic equivalences to OWL or other well-known ontologies. The "jorne" gismu exactly describes what RDF does (although in N3 syntax, the 2nd and 3rd sumti of jorne are swapped). I think it would be best to start with N3 because it is simpler than RDF. All Lojbanists should learn N3 syntax to get ready for the explosive growth of the Semantic Web!

Awesome.

I've been working on a Lojban project that can involve the Semantic Web, so
this kind of thing could turn out to be really useful. I don't have time around
now to contribute to Jorne, but I'd just like to let you know that I support
the effort.
