SIOC profile for 'sioc-project.org' A SIOC profile describes the structure and contents of a community site (e.g., weblog) in a machine processable form. For more information refer to the <a href="http://rdfs.org/sioc">SIOC project page</a> Wordpress - XML import/export http://wordpress.com/blog/2006/06/12/xml-import-export/ WordPress will let you export the entire blog and comments in an XML file starting from the next release (2.1). The XML format is an extended version of RSS 2.0. (would be interesting to take a look at it). "The export is mainly useful for moving content between WordPress blogs that you run, whether it's moving from your self-hosted blog to the convienence of WordPress.com or the other direction. It includes posts, pages, comments, drafts, private posts, categories, and more. We don't yet have a plugin that can generate this format for older version of WP, but it'll be coming soon and when it's done we'll post about it." --- It's clear that this format does something similar for "bulk" export of the blog what SIOC exporters do for individual posts (which can then be crawled together to get a "replica" of the blog in RDF). I would not expect them to use SIOC (RSS 2.0 seems like a natural valid in terms of popularity and implementation) or Semantic Web technologies for the task of moving data from one blog to another. Yet we have to see if and how we can benefit from this move. One thing that comes to mind is to have a converter between this WP XML format and SIOC, at the same time comparing what can be done with one, and what - with the other. There must be more...
