GoodRelations is a standardized vocabulary for product, price, and company data that can (1) be embedded into existing static and dynamic Web pages and that (2) can be processed by other computers. This increases the visibility of your products and services in the latest generation of search engines, recommender systems, and other novel applications.

Dear all: I just released a set of very powerful templates for generating GoodRelations data in RDFa and RDF/XML. See http://code.google.com/p/templates4goodrelations/ http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/GoodRelationsTemplates Key features: * Compatible with all Django-style templating engines, e.g. - Jinja2 (Python) - Django (Python) - Google App Engine - H2O Template Engine (PHP), http://wiki.github.com/speedmax/h2o-php/ * XHTML 1.0 Strict compatible * Rich RDFa patterns * Yahoo Searchmonkey compatible * LPGL license The package includes templates for RDF/XML data dump files and sitemap.xml with Semantic Sitemap extension support. This allows developers on any platform with any programming language to generate fully-fledged e-commerce data for the Web of Linked Data with minimal requirements. Basically any HTML templating engine will do (with minor modifications, in worst case). I expect that this approach will reduce the entrance barriers for mainstream Web developers significantly.
