Jon Udell on Symbolic grounding and extensible aggregators #

Jon Udell's "Symbol grounding and extensible aggregators" will be useful reading when I get some time to think more about when/whether it's time to drink-the-RDF-cool-aid. It's probably close to that time, especially as we work on doing all these crosswalks between XML based formats (e.g., between METS and IMS-CP; MODS and IEEE LOM) -- and when we start to disaggregate and reaggregate content, mixing XML elements from different namespaces. I've been hoping that one will be able to have a sound strategy of mixing XML without having to go one more level of abstraction higher. Jon's article might shed light on this issue. (It will also be good to look again at Stephen Downes' take on Jon's piece.)
