This was an interesting venue to speak at, since most of the people attending were Web designers, developers and project managers (e.g., working on the Australian version of data.gov) - not at all a Semantic Web crowd. In fact, very few people had heard much of RDFa, let alone RDF. As a result, most questions I got after the talk were pretty basic.

There won't be much new in the slides for people on this list, but I thought it would be nice to share them and report on some dissemination!

Thanks! The slot was 55 minutes, including questions.
