We'll try to think about how it might integrate w/ Apache Stanbol. Thanks for the suggestion. Nothing quite coming to mind yet. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: The Worlds First Web Payments Workshop http://www.w3.org/2013/10/payments/
