melvstertantek: The way the Web spread was a piece at a time. So you could take html without taking http. So the failure of NEXT was a lesson, don’t try to sell it all at one time. Sell each piece on its own merits. Never insist that everybody take all. They will take all the pieces once they see how it fits together.
melvstertantek: LDP is just standardizing PUT for data in a file like way ... it's very close to the web already, and just scratching an itch for those that wanted to use data
melvstertantek: i rejected the semantic web originally because of this, i found the specs too much work to get through, but when i finally set aside time to read them, I realized they were much simpler than I thought, and I was hooked
tantekyes I've pretty much given up on "specs too much work to get through" because it doesn't matter if I (one person) implement something, it matters if dozens, hundreds of people can
melvstertantek: i think you're right, that's why I try and show people through demos, rather than, specs now, then people can ask "how did you did that"
melvsterwhat helped me understand this was when I learnt the web was designed to be like a piece of paper, the paper doesnt care about what is written on it
