RE: [tm-pubsubj] Gentle Intro to Published Subjects - new draft

[Bernard Vatant <bernard.vatant@mondeca.com>]

Folks

I hope you had the bandwidth to look at Steve's draft. I have not,
because for some reason this message had escaped my attention until
right now, and I was wondering about today's meeting agenda.

Steve will not attend the meeting, I guess, since he is traveling today.

See other message for meeting details.

Bernard

| All,
| 
| I'm still not entirely happy with it, but I do now have a draft
| of the reformulated "Gentle Introduction to Published Subjects",
| which is intended to replace section 2 of the current "final draft"
| of the first deliverable.
| 
| You will find it at
| 
|     http://www.ontopia.net/tmp/pubsubj-gentle-intro.htm
| 
| Lars Marius has already given me some feedback which I haven't had
| time to work in. I will try to do so tomorrow and get an updated
| version up by the end of the weekend.
| 
| Once I've seen the feedback from the rest of this group a revised
| version can be posted at the OASIS site. For now it's easier for me
| to have it on Ontopia's site. Hope that's OK with everyone.
| 
| I am especially interested in feedback from readers of this list
| (and their friends and relations) who are new to the basic ideas
| of subject indicators and published subjects. It's very important
| that this document is understandable to the world at large. At
| the moment I feel it still takes too much for granted (that's the
| main reason why I am still dissatisfied with it).
| 
| I'm also very interested in feedback from people in the RDF/SW
| community.
| 
| Steve
| 
| P.S. The document into which this text will be inserted can be
| found at
| http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tm-
| pubsubj/docs/recommendations/general.htm
| I believe section 3 should stand more-or-less as it is. Section 1
| could do with a little more discussion in my opinion.
