RDF has a very different purpose. After having been at the W3C
meeting, I am actually starting to understand the Semantic Web. It's
merely like a database of information that is available for everybody
to add to and to take information out of. ;-)

As for video metadata, there is the W3C media annotations working
group http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Annotations/ . Likely, it will
develop a "structure" of standard metadata fields for audio & video.
This may be structured. It may have an RDF XML representation, but
certainly not the only one. What I am most interested in are the
fields that will be defined. Currently, Adobe's new XML
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp/ is under investigation as a means to
provide a basic set of fields.

Cheers,
Silvia.
