Annotations

[Ari Davidow]

One of the things that makes a slide show or media show work is
annotations--you know, those captions that are added, overlayed onto
the media slide. There seems to be no obvious way to indicate an
annotation (or its placement) within the confines of OAI-ORE. Has
anyone else explored this issue? Is there a different namespace into
which we could tap to accomplish this end? It has to fit in with Atom,
ORE, and the rest of the Atom-specific tools for recording OAI-ORE.

Thanks,
Ari Davidow

A project that will look into into annotations (among others in relation to ORE) will start next month or so.

See http://openannotation.org/ and http://www.cni.org/tfms/2009a.spring/abstracts/PB-open-cole.html
