  </div>

  <p><em>The GRDDL Working Group closed on 10 December 2008</em>.</p>

  <p class="baseline">The mission of this Working Group is to
  complement the concrete RDF/XML syntax with a mechanism to relate
  other XML syntaxes (especially XHTML dialects or "microformats") to
  the RDF abstract syntax via transformations identified by URIs.</p>

<p>GRDDL is a mechanism for <b>G</b>leaning <b>R</b>esource
<b>D</b>escriptions from <b>D</b>ialects of <b>L</b>anguages. The
GRDDL specification introduces markup for declaring that an XML
document includes gleanable data and for linking to an algorithm,
typically represented in XSLT, for gleaning the resource descriptions
from the document.</p>

<p>A <a href="#ref_usecases">GRDDL Use Cases document</a> provides
motivating examples.  A <a href="#ref_primer">GRDDL Primer</a>
demonstrates the mechanism on XHTML documents which include
widely-deployed dialects, more recently known as microformats.
