Linked Data Shapes, Forms and Footprints

Dear Owen & public-xformsusers,

As it was told that XForms is an XML-based programming languages I came to
pages on XML: It brought me to T. Bernets-Lee collection of writings on
Design Issue. Interestingly I find a page recently written by Berners-Lee
in 2019
(https://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Footprints.html) about technologies to
help with building applications among which were languages of forms. And we
are here in public-xformusers@w3.org.

Together with another page opened written older than the previous one by
Berners-Lee explaining about "evolvability" (
https://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Evolution.html), my readings on IETF (
www.ietf.org and its collaborators such as IRTF and IAB), the website on
STRATML with its slogan mentioning "Intentions", "Networks Society" (Manuel
Castell*) and "Networks of Laguage" (J. Francois Lyotard, "The Postmodern
Condition"), the document on technologies to help with building apps
(Berners-Lee, 2019) brought me to such a draft of minds below --with an
emphasis on "networks of applications supported by languages":


For the Internet and the Web, thus networks of computer-based
communications and informations --at least considering the Web goals of
interoperbility and evolvability/evolution if they are still so while if it
has not been changed evolution is a main concern of Internet engineers--,
there would supposedly be networks of applications supported by languages:
and there would also be those of intentions/interests of users' and
architects'... Is'nt it so...?

This is why the message relates with issues maintained by
public-informationarchitecture@w3.org and public-appsdesignlab@w3.org
beside public-xformsusers@w3.org...




Note:
* It is a long web address, then I separate it:
Manuel Castell, "Informationalism, Technology and Network Society"
https://annenberg.usc.edu/sites/default/files/2015/04/28/Informationalism%2C%20Networks%20and%20the%20Network%20Society.pdf



Regard,
Guntur Wiseno Putra
