== Timeline ==
 
 
Here's a conservative timeline.  I expect to get more done; as actual coding begins, I'll update this with more accurate estimates.
 
 
[http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=o7o9ms264j8p9h2doaqpdbikh8%40group.calendar.google.com http://www.google.com/calendar/images/ext/gc_button1_en.gif]
 
 
By week 2: Write an XMP parser. Tracker includes examples of parsing XML using glib which I will also follow as a guide.  (Based on recommendations/specifications at http://wiki.creativecommons.org/XMP)
 
 
By week 4: Add support to Tracker to automatically read and index XMP sidecar files, which will take advantage of the XMP parser.  (Done by modifying src/trackerd/tracker-metadata.c)
 
 
By week 5: Once Tracker indexes the metadata of independent XMP sidecar files, I will go about extending the extractors of various formats to index embedded XMP metadata.  Again, the above XMP parser will be utilized.  Primary formats include HTML, SVG, and PDF.
 
 
By week 7: Write a parser for RDFa for relevant formats. (Based on recommendations/specifications at http://wiki.creativecommons.org/RDFa)
 
 
By week 9: Put the RDFa parser to use
 
 
By week 11: Additionally add support for new formats, such as SMIL and RSS. As time permits, I may also extract metadata from other image formats such as TIFF, PNG, and GIF (all of which could contain XMP metadata). Formats that take advantage of previously written code may take only a day, while others may take up to a week.
 
 
By week 12: Tie things up for submission of code
 
 
== Implementation ==
 
 
Formats to support:
 
 
  * MP3
 
  * OGG
 
  * RSS
 
  * SVG
 
  * HTML
 
  * JPEG
 
  * PDF
 
  * SMIL
 
 
With the exception of MP3, OGG, and RSS, all of the above formats embed information as XMP. This relieves the burden of processing such a wide variety of formats.

To fit Tracker's metadata structure, the extracted license claim would be placed into the File:License field in a form such as: "This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/)". Such a format allows for searching the license field by both license name and URL.
 
 
Specifically,
 
 
/rdf:Description[@xmlns:dc='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/']/dc:rights/rdf:Alt/rdf:li/text()
 
 
and
 
 
/rdf:Description[@xmlns:cc='http://web.resource.org/cc/']/cc:license/attribute:rdf:resource
 
 
Will be stored in Tracker's File:License field.
