ISSUE-15 (Mitch): What is the main idea behind stadardizing uncertainty representation?

Raised by: Fernando Bobillo
On product: 

 I think the main point related to uncertainty in general and to the standardization in particular is the following (my personal opinion):
   - Agents on the Web exchange information that in many cases is not perfect (uncertain)
   - Information about the uncertainty of information (meta-information?) could be conveyed by communicating agents
   - Receiving agents need to understand such meta-information in order to be able to interpret it in the same way as was intended by the sending agents.

I don't believe this message is quite present in Section 1.
