Re: on HTTP in RDF

Hi Dan,

Glad this caught your attention! Thanks for the pointers, in fact this work did start with EricP's work related to Annotea (as you've pointed out below). EricP preferred that we clean up the work and publish it on a better namespace. However, we were not aware on your work related to email vocabulary, we will look at that in due course.

Also thanks for your comments on the current draft. You will have noticed that it is still a very early draft that we intend to clean up in the next weeks. Please send any additional comment you may have to <public-wai-ert@w3.org>.

I'll make sure to ping you, Ralph, and EricP as soon as we have another updated draft (we did send request for review to SWIG and QA).

Regards,
  Shadi
