I've never actually looked up that URI. I don't mean to trigger a redux (per Mark's original email subject), *but* I would see absolutely *nothing* wrong with a snippet of RDF which asserted that the referent denoted by that URI (You) is a member of the foaf:Person class (or galen:Person, cyc:Person, dolce:rational-agent, etc...). Afterall, RDF (and OWL) has the mechanism to phrase this interpretation authoritatively, whereas, HTTP simply does not. I for one, do not understand a scenario where This: chimezie@otherland:~$ curl -I http://www.ihmc.us/users/phayes/PatHayes HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 21:26:49 GMT can make claims more authoritative than: <http://www.ihmc.us/users/phayes/PatHayes> a foaf:Person The change I would suggest would be one where 'Machine-readable information which may help fix the denotation' is properly associated with the HTML. Especially now that we have a mechanism to faithfully render HTML in RDF (ahem: GRDDL). Perhaps, I shouldn't have been under a rock of my own during the genesis of this undying thread.. -- Chimezie
