Всех с праздниками! Рожденственский подарок )

У них действительно LD из коробки. То есть каждый блог на Друпале
теперь выдаёт рабочий SIOC хотя бы базового уровня (посты, коменты).

Кажется, это первый такой продукт в массовом употреблении?

Subject: [ANN] Drupal 7.0 released with native RDFa support

All,


After over 3 years of development by almost 1,000 contributors, Drupal 7
has finally been released today! Drupal is an open source content
management platform powering hundreds of thousands of websites and
applications. Notable websites are WhiteHouse.gov and the many top music
artist's sites of Warner Media Group. Drupal 7 features the latest web
technologies and remarkable improvements to user experience (UX). Drupal
is the first major CMS to include RDF as part of its DNA and embed RDFa
markup out of the box: all Drupal 7 sites annotate by default their
pages, comments, images, tags, authors, posted date with the popular
SIOC, FOAF, Dublin Core, and SKOS vocabularies. We hope that with Drupal
adopting RDFa, we can pave the way for a greater adoption of the
Semantic Web technologies. Drupal is estimated to power 1% of the Web,
and even though Drupal 7 was just released, more than 30,000 websites
are already powered by Drupal 7 [1]. With today's announcement, this
number is likely to sky rocket in the coming months.


Please read the official announcement which includes many of the new
features of Drupal 7, a tour video and download links:
http://drupal.org/drupal-7.0 . We are celebrating this release on Friday
with 248 parties in 88 countries, check for a party near you at [2]. If
you want to give Drupal 7 a try, I would encourage you to check out
Drupal Gardens for a free hosted Drupal site [3]. You can also install
Drupal 7 on your favorite LAMP server.


I would like to take this opportunity to thank many individuals who
supported the integration of RDF in Drupal in one way or another over
the past years. I would like to thank Dr. Axel Polleres at DERI Galway
and Tim Clark at Mass General for allowing me to work on this and
providing support & funding for this work. Special thanks to Lin Clark,
Fintan Galvin, Toby Inkster, Alexandre Passant, John Breslin, Antoine
Isaac, Simon Reinhardt, Manu Sporny, Vasiliy Faronov, Nathan, Steven
Pemberton, Dan Brickley, Richard Cyganiak as well as many other
contributors [4]. (If I missed your name, please let me know!).


all the best for the new year,
Steph.
