I am workin on a write up (deadline tomorrow) looking on the w3c website for an official W3C definiton of terms like 'semantic web' that I can quote and work with. The only one I find is here http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/Weaving/glossary.html and says: *The Web of data with meaning in the sense that a computer program can learn > enough about what the data means to process it. * (the design issues paper listed below appears not uptodate) I think it may deliberatelly not overspecified to allow for wider interpretation but I wonder if this is the only 'official' definition, and if so, I wonder if technical definitions would it benefit from further defined/specified at some point and as such listed prominently where they can be found/accesses ( html/rdf ) then I wonder whether there is any W3C glossary/controlled vocabulary that the different workgroups work with (I know we are considering one for the EIIF XG) , and finally it dawns on me that perhaps these definitions should be wrapped in RDF and become living seed/examples of what we are doing/talking about? Homework for my next Vocamp perhaps? Sorry if I am missing something obvious...... Thanks a lot Pdm
