CourierFirst I'd like to say hello to all and that I'm excited to be a part of this working group. Brief Bio: While finishing up a BS in Mathematics from the University of Minnesota I started working at the Geometry Center[1] where I helped set up and maintain their web server, and develop interactive web applications (1991 - 1995). I moved on to the Sonderforschungsbereich 288[2] as a visiting researcher then worked at a consultant shop that specialized in NeXT's WebObjects and Java (1996); then at Object/FX[3] built Java Beans for displaying and interacting with spatial objects (1996-1998); then at Bowstreet[4] assisted company on advanced technology-related issues by tracking web standards and technologies, communicating expertise, and providing guidance in the ongoing implementation of XML related functionality (1998-2001); then at Eikco implemented rdflib[5] and some SW applications that use it (2001-2003); and finally at the Mindlab[6] continue to help build the semantic web (2003-present). I'd like to get a clear, concise, and implementable specification that will be a useful building block for the Semantic Web. I hope to contribute all that I can and expect to help make sure things are implementable by producing running code. Best way to contact me is by email, or on #rdfig (look for eikeon).
