[VoCamp Discuss] The need for VoCamp - evidence from Yahoo! and the Sindice team

[Tom Heath]

Hi all,

I imagine that there's no doubt in your minds about the need for VoCamps
and related activities, but if you've ever needed to argue this to
anyone else, you might like to point them towards this month's edition
of the Semantic Web Gang podcasts [1] where Peter Mika from Yahoo
clearly states how desperate the vocab situation is on the Semantic Web,
firmly backed up by Giovanni Tummarello from DERI/Sindice. It's a great
call to arms, and a real validation for our efforts :)

Happy listening,

Tom.
