Re: Feedback

Sebastian,

please name actual datasources (Wikidata, UniProt, whatever),
vocabularies/ontologies (schema.org, Data Cube, etc.), data formats
(XML, CSV) that you want to use, and most importantly -- for what
specific purpose?

Right now your document is so abstract it is incomprehensible and not
implementable.
