The W3C Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group (ERT WG) has published new or updated a number of RDF vocabularies that are part of the Evaluation and Report Language (EARL). These working drafts include:

• Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) 1.0
• HTTP Vocabulary in RDF 1.0
• Representing Content in RDF 1.0
• Pointer Methods in RDF 1.0

See also the Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) 1.0 Guide.

EARL provides a format for expressing test results, such as those generated by Web accessibility evaluation tools, using a vendor-neutral and platform-independent format. While the review period has ended, ERT WG encourages you to review EARL 1.0 documents and submit any comments. See Call for Review: EARL 1.0 Last Call Working Draft e-mail for more information.
