[Buildingdata] "Cost of attending an event"

Hi all,

Here is an event:

http://data.ox.ac.uk/doc/event/www-ox-ac-uk/24086

which has been extracted from:

http://www.ox.ac.uk/applications/iphone/events.rm

In there we have @cost attributes.

To turn this into RDF, GoodRelations seems a good fit, but we can't do:

<#event> gr:hasPriceSpecification <#price> .

<#price> a gr:UnitPriceSpecification ;
  rdfs:label "Free - donations welcome" ;
  gr:hasCurrencyValue 0 ;
  gr:hasCurrencyy "GBP" .

As that would mean one could buy an event, which is silly. What we need,
therefore, is a gr:Offering to represent "attendance at the event". Do
we know of a way of representing this magic glue that sits between by
event and my price?


Yours in eager anticipation,

Alex
