Thanks for calling me the flagship organization representing the Semantic Web for health care and life sciences ;) (as an aside, the e-mails I write are personal opinions and not representative for any of the organizations that I am involved in) > Back in 2006 in the "Creeps" paper, Ben and I wrote that the SWHCLS > community has spent too much time focusing on "Semantic" rather than on > "Web"... and it really hasn't changed much nearly 4 years later :-( I > honestly think that, if we all pulled in the same direction, we could make > the "Web" aspect of the Semantic Web work better than it currently does... This is quite dissonant with the impressions that I have. The Linked Data paradigm is very popular, and a lot of work in this area (as well as query federation) is going on at the moment. What exactly are you missing in the work that is currently going on? Cheers, Matthias
