Thanks, i tend to agree with you myself (the poster).

This is still a demonstrator.. the idea is show that this is possible and that putting markup on your pages is useful becouse eventually there will be sigma 2, 3 (or whoever else), the S/N ratio will increase and it will be possible to reuse it with one simple HTTP call to make any SAAS software (or any software really) do cool things automatically.

You're right, name disambiguation is not covered by this release.
The truth is that thanks to the semantic descriptions it will be more and more possible to do disambiguation is a smarter, more precise way e.g. using any other property you might put in any of your online presence files, e.g. homepages, work , interests etc.

it just takes work :-) a disambiguating sigma is expected by december.

Cheers.

p.s. we're not imposing any standard really.. Google and Yahoo ARE supporting RDF, RDFa and Microformats, and peopele ARE putting them on their pages. we only show how you can recombine them.

The semantic web has many issues but these are not denied

quite evidently however there is people who put a lot of work into this in finding the right balance between technology and socially sustainable models..

but go ahead just diss everybody :-) why not, i mean.
