1) I know a lot of people there have ongoing projects that they would<br>
like to promote.<br>
2) SMW is an open source project aimed at bringing semantic web<br>
technology 'to the masses'.<br>
3) I think SMW is literally one of the most exciting projects on earth*.<br>

<br>
<br>
Is anyone interested in trying to contribute to the BBC documentary?<br>
Is anyone interested in helping to develop this site into a more<br>
useful resource (demonstrating the use of Semantic annotation)? What<br>
do you think should be the next step?<br>

I suggested to contact some of the SMW and SMW extension developers to<br>
provide an overview of the application, but it would be great to get<br>
additional involvement from anyone who is interested.<br>
<br>
