Ron, Pat,
[US]: I suppose a *program* would be some crawler that can extract this information from pages, taking them as a resource in an RDF model. That model would be a harvesting of semantic information, using the schema.org ontology (is there such thing? what is it?) from a site or group of sites. Can be a large data set, but the result can than be processed, reasoned about, analyzed, etc. Should be useful content.

Thoughts?

      I have looked at a number of pages enthusing about how great it is,
with no links to actual usage.  Perhaps someone knows of a publicly
available real example of usage with details of the internal mechanisms, not
just use cases?   I mean the **program** that uses it, not just references
to sites that "use" it by marking up their pages using the schema.org
vocabulary.   It' nice that many people mark up their data in a similar
manner, but that doesn't help me understand the way that markup is processed
for practical purposes.

Aye! There's the rub!!!
Anyone know the contact information for one of the directors of the project
at Google, Microsoft, or Yahoo?
