As such I dont think there are any specific mailing lists, etc just yet, but watch this space. You will be aware that there are already efforts to align Semantic Web technologies with the UML and appropriate tooling, but I'm personally not aware of any effort yet to broaden the discussion out to debate the wider implications for MDA in general. Nevertheless, MDA was one of the agenda items I was planning for the SE task force. You might find it interesting to note, however, that Grady Booch has already confirmed that he would be personally interested in contributing to any W3C activity on SE and the Semantic Web. I must say that I am encouraged by the response we are getting on the potential of such a task force. If you would like some further thoughts on the crossover between SE and SW, perhaps you might like to take a look at, http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/autonomic/library/ac-summary/ac-semantic.html . Alternatively, go to www.ibm.com and search for 'semantic web'. I think this paper still comes out top of the list... Regards Phil Tetlow Senior Consultant IBM Business Consulting Services Mobile.
