In trying to bring this harrowing thread to some productive end, I've
fleshed out and renamed my earlier "Ontologies of the Web" [1]
- in general, they're not ontologies yet, so I've downgraded them
to being "theories". (Theories can of course be formal (like
ontologies), or completely informal, like metaphors).
- I've added several more. My favorite new one is view [2], which
may not apply across the whole web, but it beautifully matches how
I think about the web when I'm designing a site.
- I've added lots of introductory rambling about process, which you
can easily skip since it's hypertext.
- I've divided theories between Context-Free and Contextual ones,
since I think that division is fundamental to this debate.
Comments welcome, of course. I suggest keeping them off this list but
please do cc: www-archive@w3.org so I can quote you. I know, I'm
walking a time-intensive line between a paper and a wiki, but it's the
best I could come up with so far.
