moco.news points to an internetnews.com story about the Composite Capability/Preference Profiles (CC/PP): Structure and Vocabularies 1.0 reccommendation by the W3C. Here’s a bit from the W3C news page:
The World Wide Web Consortium today released Composite Capability/Preference Profiles (CC/PP): Structure and Vocabularies 1.0 as a W3C Recommendation. CC/PP 1.0 is a system for expressing device capabilities and user preferences using the Resource Description Framework (RDF). CC/PP guides the adaptation of content, making it easier to deliver Web content to devices. Read the press release and testimonials, and visit the Device Independence home page.
That totally rocks! Why haven’t I heard about this before?
It’s going to take me some time to parse and digest this information, but it strikes me as A Good Thing in a big way. Extra major bonus points for RDF usage. It looks like CC/PP has some industry backing, which is a good sign. We’ll have to see where this thing goes.
