The features of each recipe are clearly described, so that vocabulary or ontology creators may choose the recipe best suited to the needs of their particular situations. Each recipe contains an example configuration for use with an Apache HTTP server, although the principles involved may be adapted to other environments. The recipes are all designed to be consistent with the architecture of the Web as currently specified. I think the W3C really have to decide if this is an Apache Guide or a general Web guide. Right now its an Apache guide, so why not correct the title so it reads: Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF Vocabularies *using Apache*. The "Web of Linked Data" is simply not about Apache, and I believe you all know that. Thus, what's the value in producing collateral that - by title and abstract -- implies inextricable binding of the Web and Apache. Lets make things clearer, the clearer things are the better for the "Web of Linked Data" or "Linked Data Web" as a whole.
