Our projects have been supporting the needs from users who have little or no techy background. They quite buy the idea of Semantic Web, for making it easier to mash up datasets, technically speaking. However, we are still looking for compelling cases to show that there are things that cannot be done without LD. And I would really want to know what the LD community feels about how far the LD technology is reaching outside the SW community. Looking forward to SQUIN:-) Jun
