The latest issue of SIGSEMIS: Semantic Web and Information Systems is out - and once again, I am forced to ask why a semantic web organization can't publish their journal in XML, or at least HTML, instead of the decidedly non-semantic PDF. Anyhow, the highlight is this issue is the interview with Tom Gruber, well known for his work on ontologies. Some good quotes asking what a knowledge portal is for, analyzing the cost and benefits of strict ontologies, and pointing out that an ontology is a treaty, not a law.
