Motivation
The goals, scope, and vision of this community group on Best Practises for Multilingual Linked Open Data can be found in the group charter
Procedure and milestones [draft]
1. First, a classification will be made of the topics to be treated by the community. E.g., naming, URIs vs IRIs, linking, etc.
2. Then, we will make a call for use cases, trying to identify which of the previous topics are involved in each use case. E.g., ontology localisation, publication of MLOD from data silos, using MLOD in translation workflows, etc.
3. Next, we will organise dedicated telcos to discuss best practices for each of the topics, in the context of the identified use cases.
4. Finally, when we consider that the discussion about a topic is mature and some consensus is reached we will document it in a report.
We identify the following milestones [to be refined]:
- M1 - Kick-off meeting (June 2013)
- M2 - First draft of the report with topic selection and initial use cases (October 2013)
- M3 - Final draft of the report with final use cases and best practices (March 2014)
Topics
The selection of topics can be found at topic classification
Use cases
The specification of generic use cases can be found in the use cases definition page.
The specification of some real application scenarios is documented here: case studies.
Best practices
- Notes: The draft notes and background material used for the discussion sessions can be found in the best practises - previous notes section.
- Guidelines: A wiki section is also available for the discussion about guidelines for LD generation of Language resources - previous notes
- Best practices: The result of the discussions are documented in the best practises section. A snap-shot if discussion upto Oct'14 is distilled into a deliverable by the LIDER project, which will be integrated into this wiki.
Reports
The draft reports are developed in the BPMLOD GITHUB repository: https://github.com/bpmlod/report (feel free to contribute)
The generated reports will be listed here
Meetings
All meeting agendas and minutes are recorded in the page of meetings of the community group
Issue tracking
The list of actions and issues of the group can be followed in the tracking system [DEPRECATED]
Guidelines and Best practices [2023 UPDATE]
Working space for the re-start of the group activities in 2023
- Guidelines: A wiki section for the discussion about new and updated guidelines and best practices for LLOD in two dimensions:
- Generation, interlinking, publication, and validation of LLOD.
- Linguistic Linked Open Data-aware Natural Language Processing.
