The first alpha release of Drupal 7 will be created next Friday Jan 15th. We've already incorporated most of the feedback we received from the semweb community so far, but I wanted to give the community a last chance to review the RDFa markup and the default RDF mappings we use before it's too late. I should emphasize that all the markup and default RDF mappings that we ship in core will be pretty much set in stone after the stable release of Drupal 7, hence this call for feedback. Site administrators who care about semantics will be able to alter these mappings by installing extra modules, but many people (read several 10K sites) will just install Drupal 7 and not care about the semantics it generates. Therefore we want to make sure the RDFa generated by Drupal out of the box is somewhat correct and does not make folks from the semantic/pedantic web community angry :) - we've tried to keep the semantics as generic as possible for that reason.
RDF mappings
I've created a diagram representing the default semantics of the core data structure which has been committed and I would appreciate feedback on the RDF terms we've used.
RDFa markup
To make the RDFa markup review process easier, I've updated the usual testing site at http://drupalrdf.openspring.net/. It features a blog post with some comments which represents a typical Drupal 7 page annotated with RDFa. Some other pages have been randomly generated to be able to test the tracker which acts as a very simple sitemap in RDFa.
