I am very well aware of the problem of adoption. At the same time, we
have a similar problem not only in the publication of the data but

in large scale, what use is the data at all? I agree that bombarding
a server with crawlers just for harvesting as many triples as
possible without thinking about their use is stupid. But it will
always happen, no matter how many mails we have on the Linked Data
mailinglist.
Yes, however major conferences such as ESWC, ISWC, and WWW could
define guidelines for
their paper submissions and actually reject papers that are based on
denial of service attacks.
No, no.
We should build better Linked Data platforms (consumer and server side).
Linked Data solution modulo WebID isA poor Linked Data solution, really.
We can't have it both ways. AWWW is there to be used, that's why I
continue to refer back to it as solid architecture due to inherent
flexibility, all delivered using "deceptively simple" principle.
If anything, the whole AWWW is so "deceptively simple" that people think
the modus operandi for Web solution development has to be "simply
simple" :-(
Smart Linked Data solutions are vital to long term success of Linked
Data and the data space dimension of the WWW that it unveils. WebID is a
cheap route. Just as HTTP URIs are cheap routes to global identifiers
that resolve to representations of their referents.
It
became a trend to very much focus on size and invite people to
evaluate their results in this
respect.
Yes, cos Linked Data is a Big Data play :-) Size will always matter
since one needs to find the proverbial needle in the haystack (massive
linked data mesh at InterWeb scales).
In the same way we could define certain criteria that excludes dos
attacks for achieving
this.
Won't work, and IMHO a cop out for those who are supposed to thrive on
solving problems in the academic realm.
The day we decided to make data access technology (circa. 1992) is the
same day we put ACLs on the table, assuming that's what everyone else
would be doing. It inadvertently became a USP re. the then world of ODBC
based data access.
Linked Data provides much more granular access than ODBC, but in doing
so it also ups the ante re. ACL problem, exponentially due to InterWeb
scale.
Obviously it will not stop all people in the wild out there but it
would at least prevent the
core of the academic semantic web community to burden their own
technological achievements.
WebID will kill it off pronto :-)
