Re: CredWeb Plans, meeting tomorrow

I believe, though class schedules kept me from meetings last semester and I
am not a developer, that "signal" has a long history in credibility
research as a "marker" to the consumer to indicate if a source is credible
or not.

So the RDF would be a bit of machine readable data as a vocabulary of of
traditional human readable and disagreeable signals of credibility. For
example you may have a currency "signal" that equates to an RDF vocabulary
for publication date.

Please others correct any misconceptions I may have.

Should be there tomorrow, first day of semester, never know what random
meetings pop up.
