Bravo Harry :-) let me also add without adding anythng to the header.. *keeping HTTP completely outside the picture* http header are for pure optimization issues, almos networking level. Caching fetching crawling, nothing to do with semantics. A conjecture: the right howto document is about 2 pages long it says something"simply put RDFa on your pages and.. ( a) there is a default interpretation which works 99.99% of the time e.g. "if it has RDFa it talks about something that's an entity and its not a page" or b) you add a triple but no triple means by default that.. or c) .... ") we're almost there i feel it.

However, if you are about to say something like, "the Web is just fine as it is", then I will have little patience. We invent the Web as we go and need not be artificially constrained. The Semantic Web is still young enough to be done right (or "more right", or maybe "somewhat right"). >> >> Regards, >> Dave >> >> >> >> >> >> > >
