Submission request to W3C


We, W3C member IPR Systems Pty Ltd, hereby submit to the Consortium the following specification, comprising the following document attached hereto:

Representing vCard Objects in RDF/XML

which is referred to as "the submission" or the "vCard RDF/XML Specification". We request the submission be known as the vCard RDF/XML submission.

Abstract

This submission specifies a Resource Description Format (RDF) expression that corresponds to the vCard electronic business card profile defined by RFC 2425. This submission provides equivalent functionality to the standard format defined by vCard Version 3.0. The motivation is to enable the description of persons (using the existing semantics of vCard) and to encode these in RDF/XML.

Please note that an XML Namespace is defined in this submission. W3C may wish to review it to be consistent with the W3C policy on XML Namespaces.
