Re: SemWeb Non-Starter -- Distributed URI Discovery

yes and ++me

As you can read on
http://leobard.twoday.net/stories/607462/

URIQA and the use of the uriqa get mode does a good thing to query rdf 
sources.
(.../uriqa?uri=....&....)
I used the concepts of CBD and dereferencable URLs throughout 
www.gnowsis.org and it helped much.

It was really easy to plug together
* gnowsis and mindraider
   http://leobard.twoday.net/stories/607462/
* and gnowsis and fenfire
   http://leobard.twoday.net/stories/406584/
* and gnowsis and foafnaut
   http://leobard.twoday.net/stories/307895/


so from my side:
* USE URLs (or google for uri crisis)
* uriqa is it to get it fly for today (.."bootstrapping" as patrick put it)

cheers
