Sandro, I am not sure if it is appropriate to post to this list, apologies if it isn't. I have only a short question to help me understand these important issues.

They can learn that nicely by doing a web lookup > on the URIs. But isn't the whole point that one cannot rely on getting a particular document (representation) when "doing a web lookup on the URI"? So, what if the representation I GET back for a URI at time T1 denotes another meaning than the representation I GET back for the same URI at time T2? Doesn't that mean I can't rely on the meaning of the URI to be constistent over time? Does the RDF-approach of using URIs for KR consider this? Can you explain how, or send me a pointer to a description? Thanks. Jan -- Jan Algermissen http://www.topicmapping.com Consultant & Programmer http://www.gooseworks.org
