Hi, Sounds interesting.
I am not too familiar with space technology. Do you know whether they are publishing some public domain data about space (e.g., about stars etc.)? Considering SMW's new Triple Store Connection and my interests in using SMW with numerical Linked Data, I'd be happy to propose a project and mentor a student. I cannot contribute much to the proposal effort, though.

I got the impression that it is very much a prototypic project. They seem to work under a tight schedule themselves - else they could hardly call it _Summer_ of Code. So, yes, I think the point is to make a sufficiently convincing case. Maybe it would help if one of the tasks would be to implement a showcase. E.g. there is SNPedia. Why not have something similar for celestial objects (stars, planets, comets, ...). It would certainly help to find out where and how SMW is used in NASA. (Btw, SMW is also used at ESA already, although to such a small extent that only two people really know about it, so it probably does not count. :) ) Cheers, Stephan Am 05.07.2011 16:50, schrieb Yaron Koren: > Hi Stephan, > > This sounds interesting.
