Re: The role of the AI KR Strategist:

I dont know the story of why the AAAI article does not cite Gruber cannot
find it his work in the references
But this happens a lot,  some academic will publish work done by others and
will get credit for it
I know for a fact a lot of lurkers or list do exactly that -=

There is a much longer list of sources which I am maintaining in my list of
references which I hope to share as one of the deliverables for this CG
