<p>moved content brainstorm page for research</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>=== rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot; ===<br /> <br /> Rel-Ecolabel is a simple, open, format for indicating ecolabelled items which is embedable in HTML or XHTML, Atom, RSS, and arbitrary XML. <br /> Specification 2008-05-12<br /> <br /> === Author ===<br /> Jacob Malthouse (http://bigroom.ca), formerly of ICANN (http://icann.org/)<br /> <br /> === Abstract ===<br /> By adding rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot; to a hyperlink, a page indicates that the destination of that hyperlink is the ecolabel for an ecolabelled item listed on the current page. E.g. with the following hyperlink:<br /> <br /> &lt;a href=&quot;http://ecolabelling.org/ecolabel/ecologo/&quot; rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot;&gt;ecologo&lt;/a&gt;<br /> <br /> NOTE: in the highlighted portion - is this where we would put an ecolabel code or readable URL for ecolabelling.org entry? <br /> <br /> the author indicates that the product, company, or services has obtained an &quot;ecologo&quot; certification.<br /> <br /> --[[User:Spiritquest|Spiritquest]] 23:06, 27 July 2009 (UTC)<br /> <br /> It seems that it might work well with being linked to an hproduct / hCard - to identify a manufacturer - I've yet to explore hproduct in detail.<br /> <br /> I don't know that pointing the URL of the ecolabel directly to www.ecolabelling.com would work.<br /> <br /> If I ran a product site with ecolabelled products, I would want to point to either a source of information on the label internally within the site, or have it point to a list of all data tagged with similar ecolables.<br /> <br /> &lt;a href=&quot;http://myproductsite.org/ecolabel/ecologo/&quot; rel=&quot;license&quot;&gt;ecologo&lt;/a&gt;<br /> <br /> The destination would then show all '''ecologo''' tagged products within the catalogue of myproductsite.org<br /> <br /> maybe microformat parsing tools could be created to send users or pull information from www.ecolabelling.org site as a source of authoritative info and background on the label.<br /> <br /> rel-tag as an example can point to an internal site structure using a taxonomy but can also use microformat tools to extend data searches to sites like technorati.<br /> <br /> === Multiple Licenses ===<br /> <br /> Multiple such rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot; hyperlinks indicate that multiple items on the page are available under any of the referred licenses. E.g. the following hyperlinks could be used to declare that a page is available under either an ecologo or a certified carbon free ecolabel:<br /> <br /> &lt;a href=&quot;http://ecolabelling.org/ecolabel/ecologo/&quot; rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot;&gt;ecologo&lt;/a&gt;<br /> &lt;a href=&quot;http://ecolabelling.org/ecolabel/certified-carbonfree/&quot; rel=&quot;ecolabel&quot;&gt;certified-carbon-free&lt;/a&gt;<br /> <br /> === XMDP profile ===<br /> unknown/in development <br /> <br /> === Implementations ===<br /> none<br /> <br /> === List of Ecolabels ===<br /> http://ecolabelling.org/ecolabel/<br /> see also: about ecolabelling.org: http://ecolabelling.org/about/<br /> <br /> === References ===<br /> See Also</div>
