double regrets and partial explanations...

regrets...

...that the RDFS draft wasn't (isn't) done for the 6th. You can expect
something for next week's meeting.

...and that I'll most likely miss today's call, as I've an all-day meeting
that has to take precedence.

Context (explanation rather than excuse): as several of you know, I'll be
parting company with ILRT / University of Bristol at the end of this year.

I expect next year to be working on the Semantic Web more than ever
(likely from Boston and France as much as from Bristol); putting things
into place to make that a reality has, I regret to say, lately been taking
up more of my attention than my RDF Core WG duties. I hope to rectify this
asap, but in the meantime wanted to say a few words so folk don't take my
absenteeism to imply that I don't value or prioritise RDF Core's work.

This WG, in my (doubtless biased opinion) is one of the more important
Working Groups W3C has chartered in recent years; our work here is laying
some solid foundations for the looming Semantic Web. I look forward to
spending more time doing my bit...
