[PragmaticWeb] Ideas for a possible framework

[Sebastian Samaruga]

Sorry for being so insistent. Feedback is valuable 'cos I tend to reinvent
the wheel. I agree that RDF/OWL are enough powerful and vast technologies
by themselves. I don't want to reinvent them. I've updated the draft I'm
publishing with my thoughts as an attachment hoping is more clear than the
previous (was not as clear as I wanted).

To put it on one statement: I want to generate RDF/OWL from diverse
datasources, augment it with knowledge and make it available through a set
of APIs/protocols, all this leveraging what existing semantic web
frameworks can provide.

Hope not being bothering anyone with so many drafts. Best,

Sebastián.
