#OpenScience and the #fediverse .. let's get that ball rolling 💪

@jfietkau @jonny and @bonfire opened a brainstorm and evaluation on how we can provide better support for the academic world and #science in general to the #ActivityPub-based fediverse.

Various different iniitiatives are underway, and there's great opportunity to bundle forces and align these efforts where possible. Set standards.

What I notice is an uptick in interest in #Hypermedia and using the open web standards as intended and best supported in browsers.

You see that in web frameworks that go for radical simplicity, like #Datastar at https://data-star.dev where the front-end offers intermediate-mode #UI and logic shifts to the back-end.

What I found interesting (for its concepts) many years ago when #LinkedData was still hottish, was the #Hydra hypermedia project.

Super! I am also seeking co-maintainers of this delightful list. I'm curating too many lists on the https://delightful.coding.social initiative to keep them all up-to-date.

@janvlug are you still up for this, on the #LinkedData front?

There have been quite some developments in LD world since the last updates of the README. The technology suffers from lack of ecosystem support, and it creates a sort of chicken/egg. Good directories help the onboarding.

There are examples of the #ActivityPub extensions #Bookwyrm makes, which are on the (commonly taken) path of protocol decay and whack-a-mole programming by their #LinkedData non-conformance, unfortunately.

Yet that means there's opportunity for #FEP's if there are more #interoperability parties. 😃

Here's an example of Quotation, which has no LD context:

https://github.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/blob/main/bookwyrm/tests/data/ap_quotation.json

And here of Edition which is incorrectly placed in #ActivityStreams context:

Der Shift von MARC zu BIBFRAME scheint an der LoC gelungen zu sein.
Die praktische Implementierung von BIBFRAME in die Katalogisierung der Library of Congress ist schon spannend. Die Schulung von über 300 Mitarbeitenden war sicher eine Herausforderung.

Aktuell läuft der BIBFRAME Workshop Europe als hybride und kostenfreie Veranstaltung

#rdf / #linkeddata design / #ontology design questions here to do with Library of Congress relators (a.k.a. MARC relator terms) published as RDF...
Modeling for these terms in RDF seems peculiar in a few respects (to me), but do any of these characteristics have significant implications or drawbacks for data (re)use? Love to hear from library data people, also interested in the perspective of ontologists practicing outside the library domain!

Btw, I'm personally convinced that we'll move towards hybrid decentralization where federation and #p2p co-exist peacefully side-by-side.

Regarding web I think there are natural places where the technology shines, in linking #hypermedia resources. And places where its use represents a Golden Hammer anti-pattern.

For #LinkedData I feel it has yet to see its killer app, that such hypothetical app exists, yet likely never materializes.

With #Solid project you saw a "Just create intricate #LinkedData specs, omit appealing to dev community, target biz directly. And broad adoption will come".

With #ActivityPub we saw "Let's have these initial specs be the basis, and throw it into this grassroots ecosystem, and vNext will rise from that".

#DAT project saw cryptography and compsci experts going deep in the tech, without considering how it would be adopted, implicit "code it and they will come".

Etcetera.

If #LinkedData refers to meaningful data, then we are not building a meaningful #fediverse.

For all people that like to eat vegan or vegetarian, and who also like Free and OpenSource Software, and community powered projects like #OpenStreetMap and #LibReviews and Linked Data,and who are #traveling:

Have a look at #VeggieKarte, it brings the above all together.

Note that #ActivityPub here on the #fediverse has this need to discover and introspect the capabilities of actor endpoints on the network.

This entirely missing. With #ActivityStreams#LinkedData endlessly versatile, a player on the fediverse can freely invent their own flavours on-the-fly, introducing protocol decay and makes #interoperability harder.

Whack-a-mole driven development to moving targets ensues.

I might be overdoing this whole #RDF and #LinkedData thing, but… here's the first steps with #Trinja, a RDF-to-HTML mapper and #SSG:

https://codeberg.org/Taganak/trinja/src/branch/main/example.ttl

The idea is: Use any resource described as RDF (e.g. from #Wikidata or an #ActivityPub action), link a #Jinja template to it or its rdf:type in your own set of statements, and there you got your visualisation!

Based on #TaganakNet, the #Rust#RDF development kit by @codecraft and me. We are collecting real-world examples at a good rate!
