Yes a good question, Renato, and thanks Josef, It would be good if someone could have a go from a further distance. So I'll try a different question, which I think we should be able to answer: "I want to publish some SemWeb about myself, mainly in relation to my professional activities. What do I do?" Should I fire up foaf-wizard or vCard-wizard? Or both? If so, what will help me only enter data once?
