Oh that big news - Michael Champion is now Program Manager for XML Standards in the Microsoft's XML WebData team. Wow, wow, wow - that's the only words I can say. Here is his intro on his new blog (hey, he is a Microsoft employee, so it's http://blogs.msdn.com/mikechampion, not http://weblogs.asp.net/mikechampion,...

Big move! (from xml-dev to the blogosphere ;-) - and best wishes.

Quick questions - what's the time axis of your radar? Just wondering about specs that are still relatively new but haven't been picked up on by MS.

Also, how about the (errm) granularity of the support? - e.g. I can't picture MS committing to the whole RDF/OWL raft in the immediate future, but I could imagine them taking a role in e.g. the OWL-S/WSDL grounding.

Whatever - have fun!!

Hi Danny, thanks for looking in. I think my time horizon is "the forseeable future", but my focus is on the .NET framework release after 2.0

I [personally, remember I've only been here 2 weeks so I can't begin to speak for the company!] can't see MS getting heavily involved in the higher layers of the semantic web stack (e.g. OWL inference engines) anytime soon. I can imagine myself making a case to the team that we should do more at the lower levels *if* we see a good business opportunity and *if* we get feedback that people need better support in .NET to meet these opportunities.

So, while I'm more focused on asking people what they need from MS in the realm of what XQuery and XSLT do, I'd certainly like to hear from people doing ontologies, semantic integration, etc. in the MS environment so that I can present the best data and make the right case.
