Re: AI KR Talk in Taipei, contributions?

Paola, I added a slide entitled "'Machine-Readable Knowledge for 
Results" and made a few other tweaks in the attached update.

Having spent my entire 34-year career in government, I too dislike 
politics.  I'm aiming to disintermediate politics and politicians from 
as much as possible -- in a peer-to-peer based worldwide web of 
intentions, stakeholders, and results (which is the vision of the 
StratML standard).

It is not politicians who are to blame so much as We the People 
ourselves.  We can do better ... if only we have the understanding and 
will to do so.

Is that not the purpose of "representing" knowledge?
