Glad you liked the presentation.

Just a comment on the quote “libraries are not alone”: Actually, I took this from Jürgen Krause, who said this in his plenary speech the day before, so I can’t really claim the honour for it (and I think I attributed it to him; if not, now it be done: credit where credit is due).

Nice to hear that you attended that meeting – it was a little to far to go for me; even though the organizers “invited” me to do presentation on JeromeDL. I was wondering about the quality of this event, and eventually decided together with more senior people from DERI that we should wait and see.
I hope there will be a follow up, and then we will surely go – by all means – JeromeDL is the Semantic Digital Library, and my tutorial on Semantic Digital Libraries (and soon the book) are just yet another activities that should support this movement.
It is nice to hear that DL community finally acknowledged our presence, however, I am still not sure if we are ready for that. My cooperation with this community proved that this is not an easy task, but I have learned and I am still learning a lot from them. I guess, until we will be able to understand what has been achieved so far, and address problems of the DL community, we are sentenced for more misunderstanding.
