Re: Checking "Increase library participation in Semantic Web standardization" rec

It has always amazed me how library people are allergic to any terminological generalization of "pre-coordination" (it's about assembling different concepts together, no? So a kind of combination...). Anyway, what was bothering me is that the previously written "concept coordination" was looking too vague while denoting a quite precise thing ("concept" here is much more precise than many other occurrences of the same word in the rest of the text). Having an all-precise wording such as "pre-coordinated subject heading" is also very fine by me!

Changes made at http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/lld/wiki/index.php?title=Draft_recommendations_page_take2&diff=6287&oldid=6269

Thanks for the feedback, Karen!
