Perhaps we need what I have proposed for the past 24 years, one world
information system, encompassing what is now called the web, semantic web,
corporate networks, government networks, private networks, etc. See

Subject: Re: Database and Ontologies [was-Re: [ontolog-forum] A problem] (05)
Several years ago at an eGov conference in Washington, DC, Larry Ellison
(being Larry Ellison) made the intentionally provocative statement: "We
sell databases and you (government agencies) are buying too many of them." (06)
His argument was that we should be implementing *larger* databases --
Oracle databases, of course. (07)
However, I would take his argument one step further to suggest that we only
need ONE "database", i.e., the Web populated with valid XML instance
documents. (08)
Needless to say, I too am overstating the case to be provocative. However,
I do believe there is much truth in my argument. (09)

Thank you for the post, Tanya. (013)
1. Problem with registration: I'll try to resolve this with you
offline. (014)
2. Database and Ontologies: (015)

[ppy] presumably, (almost) anything related to ontologies would
be within scope for us at Ontolog. Obviously how database and
ontologies relate to each other in the next generation
semantic/knowledge-based applications would be an area well worth
delving into. (017)
Let's find out who else is interested ... ANYONE?
Like what Tatiana has done here, if anyone is interested or
working in this area, please indicate by responding to this
thread, and suggest what you want to see and/or what you can
bring to the table, as far as this topic is concerned. (018)
... Being a community of practice (ref:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?CommunityofPractice) this
topic will get addressed if there is adequate interest and energy
behind it from the community. (019)
Thanks you for highlighting this important topic, Tanya. (020)
Regards. =ppy
