timbl: An attempt to explain why it important for you and your company.
timbl: Draft
sbp: Great quote: "For data, we are still pre-Web."
sat: For EAI, exchanging RDF documents may not be very attractive, given performance concerns. Typically they convert XML to propritory format at adapters and then send it to broker.
 
danb-lap: Joel (ex-ILRT hacker) sent me this a couple years ago, I never really investigated. Something like a Java version of GraphViz?
 
sbp: Eek, it's true. I get a page with the heading "Attention: Web Browser Upgrade Required to View MSN.com
dajobe: "All of our development work for the new MSN.com is...W3C standard," ""For browsers that we know don't support those standards or that we can't insure will get a great experience for the customer, we do serve up a page that suggests that they upgrade to an IE browser that does support the" standard"
dajobe: apalling isn't it?
sbp: Heh, and they say that they're W3C standards complaint? Their page doesn't validate, and it doesn't follow WCAG
sbp: s/complaint/compliant/

bijan: Er...nothing to do with RDF.
bijan: Except that it mentions my Functional Programming and XML article, and I do a bit of RDF.
bijan: Oh and Edd writes for developerWorks...I think. And I found out about it from the xmlhack list and xmlhack hosts the scratchpad.
bijan: Er...I must be feeling a wee bit insecure or something.
bijan: Hey! He's a philosopher too!
bijan: From his CV: Title of Dissertation: The Speculum and The Scalpel: The Politics of Impotent Representation and Nonrepresentational Terrorism
bijan: Er..that's not what my dissertation is about, in case anyone is wondering.
bijan: Writes a lot about Python. A lot.
