Mashups and mashed up Personal Learning Environments require
easy to use frameworks to support the ease of creation of effective services.
The focus of this paper lies on establishing a generic and mashup-friendly
resource and metadata management. The assumption is that if we can find an
appropriate level of generic functionality, the development of targeted tools
(e.g. e-portfolios, PLEs, etc) will become a matter of user interface design and
specialization. We hope that such a framework does not result in a single
implementation but rather a wide variety of interoperable systems that
leverage plenty of functionality. In this paper we look at already existing
standards and initiatives and show why they are not sufficiently generic. We
propose a framework and take recent developments into consideration. We
also show an implementation and introduce a tangible use case.
