Re: How semantic is semantic web

Hi Chlara & All --

One approach is to clarify the various ways in which the word "semantics" is
used in connection with the Web, with Logic, and with the real world meaning
of English phrases.

There's a proposal to name these Semantics1, 2, and 3 respectively.  It's
summarized in

   www.semantic-conference.com/program/sessions/S2.html

and described in more detail in


www.reengineeringllc.com/A_Wiki_for_Business_Rules_in_Open_Vocabulary_Executable_English.pdf

In particular, making the three kinds of semantics work together in one
system appears to be useful.

Hope this helps.                      -- Adrian
