I'm Kendall Grant Clark, a researcher at the University of Maryland in Jim Hendler's Semantic Web lab. I'm also a columnist and editor for O'Reilly, particularly XML.com and the web services site, where I've written a lot about SemWeb, RDF, OWL, and the like. Some of my relevant programming experience includes work with colleagues at UMD on an implementation of Rete which may end up as part of cwm. I'm a contributor to rdflib, designed and implemented chiefly by my labmate Daniel Krech. I'm also working on an implementation of Andy's RDF Net Note, which I intend to have working by the Amsterdam f2f, using Python, rdflib, medusa, and Quixote. Our group has a large and varied set of RDF access and query requirements, and I anticipate having a set of use cases for consideration soon. I'm probably, despite my institutional position, the biggest advocate on this WG of making the query part of our brief *as minimal as possible*. I'm largely interested in the protocol issues, including machine-readable extensibility and description of RDF storage/access/query services. (Think: con-neg for the SemWeb.) Best, Kendall Clark -- Sometimes it's appropriate, even patriotic, to be ashamed of your country. -- James Howard Kunstler
