em: This article examines ways that SOAP can be used to communicate information in RDF models. It discusses ways of translating the fundamental data in RDF models to the SOAP encoding for PC-like exchange, or for directly passing parts of the model in RDF/XML serialized form.

danbri: Discussion of IEEE Trends & Controversies, Issue March/April 2002, "On Standardization of the Web Ontology Language"
danbri: Pat Hayes' piece is my favourite: Catching the Dreams
danbri: It (this paper) also includes a nice account of how you need to think if you want to grok description logics.
AaronSw: Pat Hayes: "An aside on logic. There is a widespread misapprehension that logic is 'difficult' - like calculus is supposed to be in American high schools. In fact, basic logic is easier to use and understand than description logics; it has a simpler syntax, it has simpler inference processes, and it is closer to natural language. While there are some subtle aspects of logic, one is not obliged to use them or even to consider them."
SethR: I still dont understand how using negation ie (:not_p :negates :p} so we can use {:A :not_p :B} leads to inefficient inferences

danbri: On the chump logs we find 1766 matches for: find . -name '*.xml' -exec grep title {} \; (see list of titles)
danbri: It would be good to have XSLT that created a week's view of the discussion instead of a day's. I want to run such a thing in a crontab on w3.org mailing RDF Interest a summary of the chump.
danbri: DanC says ":what I want is a month's worth of titles on a page ...with links to details"

Squish and data store support in Ruby, a transliteration of Libby's Java reimplementation of Matt's php squish2rdf script

danbri: Here's a list of student projects I wrote in 1997. Pre-RDF! 1st and 3rd are in SemWebby vein.
danbri: Other wishlist stuff: 'semantic web and me', passport renewal story. It tails off towards the end when gets into details. Interesting use case though; dunno if Australian passport system run differently to UK's...

libby: embeds RDF in JPG images
dino: documentation on Adobe specific SVG interfaces
danbri: ftp://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/musicbrainz-1.1.0.tar.gz, includes trmgen code for identifying content of MP3s, somewhat independent of encoding details. MB has a corresponding metadata lookup service, so you can go from file to it's metadata.
Tools for transforming HTML imagemaps into SVG and/or RDF, in progress. XSLT from Max F., Ruby from DanBri.
danbri: ...SVG output (PNG rasterization using batik and some scripts). Nearby: draft Ruby script.
AaronSw: Example: input imagemap from Gimp tool (pre-XML HTML fragment); tidied HTML version (note the mailboxes in the HREF's for each person; neat trick huh?); the xslt transform, and

danbri: And because the ruby channel doesn't have cool bots like this one...
danbri: The ttp://www.rubyide.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?DevDoc/DataBus doc is probably the point of connection for metadata apps. "A databus is nothing more than a hierarchical collection slots. Each slot is a container that can hold some data and is accessed (or addressed) by its path. A path should look very familiar as it is a direct analogue of a filesystem path."
danbri: Looks like tuplespaces stuff to me, interesting... Also "A Properties class sits on top of a specific section of a DataBus tree and offers XML persistence of that section of the tree.

RAAsoap2rdf.rb,v 1.1 -- dump the Ruby Application Archive (RAA) software package metadata from a SOAP service, map to RDF
danbri: This was interesting; looking at the Ruby class and property model the data mapped to, I pretty much just read off the arcs and nodes.
danbri: One point that relates to dbview: I had the choice to _either_ use the same namespace for each property, or do a bit of tweaking to use better known namespaces (eg. DC, RPMFind, FOAF etc.). It isn't clear at what stage to map obscure RDF into well known RDF...
