[PragmaticWeb] Feedback

[Sebastian Samaruga]

Hi Martynas, all,

Actual datasources of the implementation and input data formats shall be,
at least, all those you mentioned and many more (RDBMSs, EIS, etc.) tha may
be 'imported' and the purpose is to have a semantic general purpose
knowledge backend as the data/model tier in which to build logic and
specific purpose applications upon.

It's so 'low level' that I've found it difficult to explain. Although I
plan to offer 'high level' facades (Ports) for REST and other protocols,
the core concepts (metamodels) are simple in essence but I had a hard time
trying to communicate their meaning, if they do have one at all.

I know the document is a mess. Sorry. The idea behind this is to look
forward a collaborative effort to make it, readable first and then
implementable, if it's possible. Hope interested readers comment their
feedback in the document:

Regards,
Sebastián.
