I posted Kjetil's announcement on my blog, got the following in comments : [[ a bit confused by the whole 'proposal' thing myself. theres this long questionnaire on the SWEO site, at least 10 questions, plus a small essay. are they paying people to work on these tools, YCombinator style? otherwise, i cant see the incentive to fill out the questionaire etc. if a developer wants additional help, this will sort itself out if their project has merit and use outside of themselves - people will find it and play around with it, and some of them will turn into contributors.. just dont see how an official 'annointing' of some page on the w3 site does any benefit for the project, compared with the kind of inflows youd get from getting linked from tech bloggers. i mean its not like people actually READ the w3 site.. ]] from carmen ( I believe "c" on #swig, http://blog.whats-your.name/ ) http://dannyayers.com/2007/01/30/semantic-web-community#comments I've had a crack at addressing these : http://esw.w3.org/topic/CommunityProjectFaq (also at http://dannyayers.com/2007/01/31/semantic-web-community ) As ever, please edit as you see fit. Cheers, Danny. -- http://dannyayers.com
