Re: Use of Content Management Systems, ranking and usage in Semantic Web

Hi Milton

I have been thinking of how what you say below relates to your first
message about cms semantic functions, and I think the post takes a
different tack altogether (I am just trying to be coherent in my own
answers)

 "one size fits all" approach will not work.

yes, I am observing that, and find the knowledge puzzle irresistible

arent archetypes 'personas?'  and arent templates 'schemas?

I havent looked into this yet, but we must make sure that a novel
approach is not confused with novel names /applications for existing
approaches

possibly, depending on the requirement I guess

yes.......that's what metadata was designed to do, since the dublin

okay, I think I understand, kind of 'macros'
