I agree with you. There *is* a need for retrieving metadata in an effective and standardized way. But is timbl's proposal trying to take up this task, or something more limited? It's likely that a solution to the metadata retrieval problem would also be a solution for the proposal's stated problem. As a result, there's little point in focusing on this one issue (URI identifier "ownership") if it's actually part of a bigger problem (metadata retrieval). As I said, I would rather see the TAG put their energy elsewhere, even if it's into the task of standardized metadata retrieval. --- Seairth Jacobs seairth@seairth.com
