There's certainly lots of valuable insight in the paper. Relevant, I think, to the Semantic Web is the note at the beginning of the paper's notes: "Given the problem of changing addresses of web sites, the author has provided keywords for searching the site in Google in the event that the present address be changed in future." Are there any plans to address this ultimate, grand difficulty of the URI scheme? Other than, of course, waiting for Google to come and rescue us. A related issue is the natural language problem in the sense that if the semantics of a web service or a consumer of web services are expressed in terms of one natural language, how does one go about matching those semantics with semantics expressed in other natural languages. This relates to the thought that somehow names used in service descriptions by themselves inherently express some degree of semantics. Are globalization, internationalization, and localization outside of the scope of the development of Web Services? Are Global Web Services beyond the scope of W3C Semantic Web charter(s)? -- Jack Krupansky ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cutler, Roger (RogerCutler)" <RogerCutler@chevron.com> To: "Shi, Xuan" <xshi@GEO.WVU.edu>; "Dan Brickley " <danbri@w3.org>; <drew.mcdermott@yale.edu> Cc: <public-sws-ig@w3.org> Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 1:23 PM Subject: RE: Options we have with respect to the draft charters (i.e., RE: [fwd] Draft charters for work on Semantics for WS) Very interesting paper.

Veltman which can be accessed at: http://jodi.tamu.edu/Articles/v04/i04/Veltman/veltman.pdf The so-called "Semantic Web" in nature is "logical Web", the result is even XML people cannot understand RDF/OWL due to those logics and the way of RDF presentation. That's why this technology is not well accepted and deployed. That's why I said here before, the more complex the system, the less the user. It's the same to developing semantic Web services.
