XFML

It has been in the news already, but unfortunately I missed the link.

eXchangable Faceted Metadata Language XFML is an open XML format for publishing and connecting faceted metadata between websites.

This can be the missing link to create the distributed taxonomy what has been discussed in IASlash and [drupal-devel] list.

Still some limitations though

  • no related terms (but upcoming feature in XFML version 0.3)
  • no multiple parents (not planned)
