ConsuML is the project name for developing XML grammar on Sourceforge.

ConsuML stands for Consumerium Markup Language.

ConsuML is licensed under GNU GPL.

Current (short) description:

The goal of ConsuML development is to produce an XML tag schema that can be used to markup information within The Consumerium Exchange and Backend Information for generating stub articles to the Content Wiki on-demand.

This information includes (very incomplete):

Companies
Products
Campaigners
Campaigns (Boycott, Endorsement and Neutral)

ConsuML is not the top development priority. Instead the focus is on the Content Wiki

Old description:

Consumerium is a not-for-profit project, developed under GFDL license, to develop free software and infrastructure for storage, transport and display of product information to consumers and feedback to the producers to enhance the consumer experience, advance product development and to keep this planet as hospitable as possible in the future.

The goal of ConsuML development is to produce an XML tag schema that can be used to markup information about

natural and infrastructural services underlying products from resource extraction to production and distribution to Point of Sale
specific products and their features and product group schemes focusing expecially on environmental, social responsibility, corporate citizenship and ethics issues,
companies and other real organisations and their interrelations
virtual communities with common buying guidelines and their democratic or other governance
individual persons paying respect to their privacy,
production, trade, logistic, environmental, labor and financial processes,
Temporal information (times, timelines) and spatial information (geographic) and the composition of these with other data mentioned here
opinions, facts and arguments regarding buying decisions and their actual effects
feedback regarding services offered by companies

for use in the Consumerium-project and other applicable Point of Sale applications paying special attention to maintaining the historical data so that when the current data is changed the historical state is preserved for retrospection and

XSLT-transformations to facilitate data-interchange with other information systems or languages used to express similar or related information, such as ebXML and IXRetail
