Dan Brickley sent me this most interesting example of the use of FOAF. http://www.ivan-herman.net/Misc/2007/friendlyTalks.html
It struck me that members of the BO group should perhaps all create FOAF entries, and include in these all the others. If any one of us eg gives a talk, then the above will detect it and make it available to the rest of us. I am sure the scope is much wider! Mine for example is http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/rzepa/rzepa.xrdf (although its quite old and not maintained well, yet!!). I will also have a version at http://rzepa.net/rzepa.xrdf which may or may not evolve separately (to express other interests). If there are experts in the use of FOAF listening, please advise us on eg the best way of maintaining the FOAF entries, etc. I suspect much of it can/should be automated. If we manage a substantial amount of FOAF, we can perhaps inject it into the BO-triple store as a "SPARQL" endpoint. Who knows where it might go from there. If even one of us were to cite Ivan Herman, then the BO RDF graph would share a node with eg the W3C, and so onwards and upwards! -- Henry Rzepa. +44 (020) 7594 5774 (Voice); +44 (0870) 132 3747 (eFax); [EMAIL PROTECTED] (iChat) http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/rzepa/ Dept.
