Remember, this is the Linked Open Data (LOD) forum. We've long past
the issue of *demand driven* over here, re. Linked Data.
There's a difference between solving an issue and just refusing to
address it any more. Pity there isn't a another forum for generating
actual demand as reliably as this one supplies scorn.
Mike,
What problem are we refusing to address, as exemplified by :
http://semgel.com/ .
If I am missing something here, I would like to know what it is. Of
course, I might have completely overlooked something, so I am always
open to correction.
Sebastian Schaffert's response addressed this well. I also comment in
various ways on this topic on my blog as frequently as the muse strikes me.
The reason I simply commented by "+1" is that I did not want to
contribute to what are often lengthy polemics as to what the "community"
is or believes or purports. As best as I can tell there is no true
community here, but a diverse set of players with diverse interests and
perspectives. If you follow my writings closely you know that I see
linked data as a useful and often desirable technique, but not a means.
In your enthusiasm and cheerleading you as often turn people off as
inspire them. You too frequently take it upon yourself to "speak for the
community". Semgel is a nice contribution being contributed by a new,
enthusiastic contributor. I think this is to be applauded, not lectured
or scolded. Semgel is certainly as much on topic as most of the posts to
this forum.
There is a reason I and Structured Dynamics no longer comment or
participate on these forums. If I hear from others correctly, our
perspective is shared by many.
I will not comment further on this thread.
Thanks, Mike
