Hi Larry,

Thanks for taking the time to reply, a solid insightful one at that -
kudos +1 for your opensource drupal efforts!

Good of you to mention, and indeed to see, Palinter grasping opensource
with two hands, this is certainly a very credible approach to business
which deservedly reaps good rewards; testament to this is Day Software
(including of course Roy T. Fielding) which it seems is just about to be
bought by Adobe, a big +1 for this approach; and one I hope to see more of.

With regards drupal development, there is a rather interesting chap
called Stéphane Corlosquet [ http://drupal.org/user/52142 ] who does a
fair bit of committing and really pushes the semantic web / linked data
side of drupal - definitely worth keeping tabs on.

Oh I'm familiar with Scor. I've talked with him before about a project I'm working on that is using the amorphous, ill-defined beast known as RDF. :-)

Great re scor!

RDF's trouble is RDF/XML - it frankly sucks. N3 or Turtle makes everything much clearer to grasp and indeed read, it's really simple at heart yet universally powerful.

I'd recommend this little presentation [1] which covers the web from inception through future from TimBL and shows where all the semantic technologies fit in, and the benefits gained. 'tis a very good overall picture imho, recommended on it's own merits not just because it includes rdf in a few slides.
