Re: Linked Data Glossary request - where to publish for quality & longevity?

Ivan, Bernadette,

I think there may be some confusion here :)

Bernadette was asking about the linked data glossary by which I think 
she meant [a]. The link to org was probably just a cut/paste error. The 
ontologies will in fact be rec track documents, not just Notes.

It may only be me, but a W3C Note gives me the feeling of something more stable or at least more mature (even if I *know* that this is a note, it can be updated at any time, etc), whereas a wiki page is, well, something that looks as if it was just being worked on.

When I put up the page as a W3C ED, I did so because that was the framework with which I was familiar.   I have no preference one way or the other regarding it being a Working Note or on the W3 wiki,  I just want to see it a) on the w3.org domain; and 2) be of good quality and consistency.  It would be nice if more people than the editors can update it over time too.
