Interesting, the system seems to have lost my reply sent yesterday. Did I 'reply to author' by mistake?
I wanted to signal great interest in this topic, and potentially some willingness to participate and help out. However, I am currently (and probably for the next year, roughly) deeply engaged in a work project where I'm developing a semantically related database on a smaller scale that doesn't tackle the problem at the level of a full triple store or OWL-type stuff. Quite likely this will be the background experience where I learn everything the hard way and directly see the need for and usefulness of a broader semantic framework in ways that I could not have seen by merely considering it intellectually. In any case, about a year from now perhaps I'll be able to chip in. -- Eric On Mar 13, 8:18 am, BrianTheLion <[email protected]> wrote: > All, > > I am interested in building -- or at least having a discussion about > building -- a Semantic Mediawiki (SMW) alternative.
