Agreed.

To take the most trivial and unproblematic case, suppose the author is just
plain unskilled at rendering his meaning as triples. Maybe his RDF is junk.
Maybe we should ignore it.

Oliver,
Great response.
I'd suggest that one component of a meaning detector would be a program that
converts the English language text of the document into a set of triples (i.e.
a grddl transform). However, it would not seem that this is the complete
construction of the meaning detector, si

Hello,
When asking for a practical example, I was more concerned about the
consumer rather than the producer of data. It is easy to claim some
data has meaning, but the question is to what extend that meaning can
be appreciated by others.
Why don't we build a little meaning detector. Som

Hi,
I think there are two aspects related to semantics.
One is interpretation (like: the world is flat by Mark). And this is in the
ontology or, if you want, even in queries.
But there is also the fact that you "name" things when you expose a resource.

Hmmm, John,
I'm wondering what criteria you are using to evaluate the equivalence
of the result of the conversion function / algorithm.
I endeavor in my personal communication to separate observation from
judgment, which to me is roughly equivalent to representation and
semantic binding.
Pat, what a concidence! I keep getting those character strings too!
Sometimes I play a little game where I convert one of them into a different but
completely equivalent character string, and send it back to the original author.
I've noticed that sometimes the author responds to my string with a

the "semantics" are in the "semantic web".

Can we perform a mashup on the two positions?
Someone who created a SPARQL end point has, by some means, created an
interpretation (graph) to query based on some document. Perhaps other
SPARQL end points would have different interpretations?

I argued the (admittedly intentionally) radical view that documents have no
semantics whatsoever
