The semweb is really about AAA (anybody can say anything about anything) 
and that's not scalable if we need to hassle the dbpedia people just to 
"link" with dbpedia.

How about Hugh Glaser's sameas.org?  Or alternatively,  you can publish 
an NT file that asserts owl:sameAs (or something similar for everything) 
and tell interested people they can download it.

Now some people don't like owl:sameAs,  some go so far to say Hugh is a 
terrorist who's trying to bind everything into one big Katamari ball,  
and my answer to that is a new predicate I'm working on.  It's just like 
owl:sameAs but it doesn't mean anything -- you're free to interpret it 
as you like in your own context...  You can punch

<o2:aka> <owl:sameAs> <owl:sameAs>.

into your inference engine just in case you really like owl:sameAs.
