New in CKAN: integrated Linked Data output

The CKANSystem for the creation of a registry of open knowledge packages and projects that enables to find, share and reuse open content and data, especially in ways that are machine automatable. (http://www.ckan.net) data portal software now has fully integrated output of metadata as RDF linked data, in XML or N3Notation3 language, of internet Media Type text/n3. Compact and readable alternative to RDF's XML syntax. (http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Notation3)
Notation3, or N3 as it is more commonly known, is a shorthand non-XML serialization of ...
format. To see it at work, simply add the appropriate prefix to the URL for a dataset. For example, here is a dataset on the DataHub (as it happens, part of the LODcloud). Would you like an XML RDF file of the metadata? here it is!

Instead of changing the URL, you can also change the “Accept:” header of your HTTP request. For full details, see the CKAN documentation. The new feature is already live on the DataHub, and will be released soon as part of CKAN 1.6.1.
