[Aperture-devel] New Bibsonomy/BibTex Crawler

[Antoni M. <ant...@gm...>]

I've been experimenting with the newly released LGPL Bibsonomy API.
(issue http://tinyurl.com/sf2093266). It's closely related to the
bibtex crawler. The API itself works OK and I can quite easily get a
list of all BibTex entries of a user and crawl them.

The bibsonomy data model is quite complex, as it contains a lot of
information, therefore my question:

What data would you like the crawler to extract
- bibtex entries
- bookmarks
- tags
- concepts
- user groups
- ????
- all bibtex fields/only the chosen ones

NIE is enough for a limited subset of fields, but it may be
insufficent for all of them (author is ok, but Institution, chapter,
booktitle etc. is not). In a general case we would need a new ontology
for this. A new ontology could be reused for the bibtex crawler. Do
you have any experience with the bibtex/rdf ontologies available on
the web, or do we roll our own?
