Hi Kingsley, I don't have a strong feeling on the layer cake. I've never used it when teaching or pitching SW to someone outside the community (at least not until the late stages of the game) and don't think that it (the visual picture itself) is a major sales material of SW technologies. I also don't think that dispeling RDF/XML myths need be a cornerstone of SWEO messaging. I've rarely personally had someone express reservations to me about SW technologies because of RDF/XML, and while I understand that in the past confusion between the interchange syntax and the data model turned people off from the field, I do not (personally) see it as a major inhibitor currently. But I also think that my personal experience is largely worthless here: I think that we should wait and see what our surveys tell us about the market's view of SW technologies, and craft our messaging accordingly.
