I thought the goal was to charter a working group and let the technical discussions be made there as is the W3C policy. I see now that this email list has become a research discussion of topics relating to rules (which is what I thought rdf-rules was for) and has drifted from any discussion of charters and the like. As such, I will leave the discussion and check back in when a new draft of a charter is circulated. -Jim H. -- Professor James Hendler Director Joint Institute for Knowledge Discovery 301-405-2696 UMIACS, Univ of Maryland 301-314-9734 (Fax) College Park, MD 20742 http://www.cs.umd.edu/users/~hendler
