If you're not using DAML - then go find someone else to fund your work. If you are, make sure you are letting us know about it by registering ontologies, or by creating more DAML out there and linking you stuff to the web site. Let me re-emphasize this -- if I somehow didn't make it clear in the past that I want you to be creating ontologies/using DAML - then here it is now. No DAML, no funds. As simple as that. -Jim Hendler DAML PM -- Prof. James Hendler Program Manager DARPA/ISO 703-696-2238 (phone) 3701 N. Fairfax Dr. 703-696-2201 (Fax) Arlington, VA 22203 jhendler@darpa.mil
