Capturing knowledge by using markup techniques and by supporting semantic
annotations is a major technique for creating metadata. It is beneficial
in a wide range of content-oriented intelligent applications.
One important application for instance is the Semantic Web. The research
about the WWW currently strives to augment syntactic information
already present in the Web by semantic metadata in order to achieve a
Semantic Web that human and software agents can understand. Here, one
of the most urgent challenges now is a knowledge-capturing problem,
i.e., how one may turn existing syntactic resources into knowledge
structures. A solution is to markup web documents in order to create
metadata on the web or to author new documents in a way that they
contain markup directly.

Another application is the indexing and searching of multimedia (and
multilingual) data. It is difficult to completely process the content of

about Annotea Server specifications.

Hello,www-annotation members.
I'm looking for strict Annotea server specification.
As trying to implement annotea server,I read "Annotea Prtocols",but I
cannot figure out whole of requests sent by client and replies shoud
be returned for them ,e.g. server should interpret requests about
bookmark ,some query languages like RDQL or SPARQL ,etc.

I think that my implementation should be able to support all features
which supported by the server on http://annotest.w3.org/annotations.
But, I could not find documents which tell about strict server
specifications on annotea still now.

I want to know strict specifications or server implementation policy
about annotest.w3.org/annotations.
Please tell or suggest me about annotea server specifications.

thank you.

Unfortunately, I guess there is no such thing.

In my opinion this server is outdated in some aspects.

Would you be willing to help in creating such a specification? If I 
remember correctly someone else asked a lot of questions on this list, 
but this is some time ago. These questions never got answered. I think 
the first thing we should do is to try to answer them. I will look for 
them and present my personal answers if I find time to do that.

Greetings
Urs

You are correct.  The "Annotea Protocols" document is not a proper 
specification.  If you look through the recent postings on this list, 
you will see a number of messages from me that point out "holes" in the 
document; i.e. points where the document does not adequately describe 
the required behaviour of an Annotea server (and client).  Those 
messages are based on what I learned in implementing "Danno".

What Urs said is also true.  The document is "out of date" in the sense 
that we want to use Annotea to do far more than the "Annotea Protocols" 
document envisages.  Support for the bookmarks schemas, SPARQL queries 
and so on are some of the examples.

Again, there are none.  Actually, it is worse than that.  The "annotest"
