Technical publishing vocab for schema.org

[Sitapati das / Joshua J Wulf]

Schema.org [1] is a collaborative effort between the major search engines
to define standard schemas for making material discoverable on the web.

Publican 3 + Docbook 5 give us the ability to embed schema.org metadata in
our publications.

Schema.org are working on a schema for technical documentation and asking
for input from the community.

I'd be interested in discussion of the proposed schema and how we might use
it, and see if any recommendations come out.


New Vocabularies for Technical Publishing

Three new vocabularies have been proposed as the result of a collaborative
effort by several Technology companies. They are specifically for use with
Technical Articles, API reference documentation, and Code.

These proposed vocabularies will improve search engines’ understanding of
documentation with technical content, and thus greatly increase the
discoverability of this documentation.
