Bug Description

The RDF namespace for authors is defined as:

  xmlns:ol='http://openlibrary.org/type/author'

It really wants a trailing / (slash) or # (hash). Without them rdf triples generated look like:

<http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL113611A> <http://openlibrary.org/type/authorname> "Jules Verne" .

When what you probably want is http://openlibrary.org/type/author#name or http://openlibrary.org/type/author/name not http://openlibrary.org/type/authorname.

Something to bear in mind in your re-work of author RDF.

This issue seems to have become solved as the RDF has been reworked and other properties are used.
