In the interests of balance about my post about CWL, be sure to read Karl Dubost's comment: As you said it is an Incubator Group. It is not on the standards track. W3C is a platform for working. Incubator Activity offers a space for people with similar needs to work on a topic that matters to them. There is almost no human resources allocated by W3C Team on these projects. There are managed by the companies involved

A Scottish police force has apologised for using a cute little dog in its advertising. Apparently, cute dogs are now an insult to "Muslim communities". Time for a heretical visit to Cute Overload. 2008-07-04T08:29:09Z

Thankfully, writing about philosophy, the Semantic Web and the everlasting supply of stupid people tends to keep the PR goons away.

I am a vegetarian, an atheist, like to code in Ruby and Scala (and Java, but let’s not talk about that), and noodle about with microformats and the Semantic Web.
I have an MA in philosophy from Heythrop College, University of London. My philosophical interests are in analytic metaphysics, ontology, modality, the work of Armstrong, Lewis, Kripke, Russell and Plato. I have a strange, unfulfilled interest in Gadamer’s hermeneutics. I’ve been influenced by Gadamer, by Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Rawls and Nozick.
Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.
I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in. I occasionally produce audio recordings for The Pod Delusion.
