I should have made it more clear that I agree with the idea itself, just not the implementation. DataLibre itself is a solid idea in principle, particularly notions like FOAF. If only it had a decent application to show off the potential.

Or put another way, DataLibre means owning your own URI space too.

Actually, I agree and will go update my entry to reflect this. It wasn’t the fixed path and autodiscovery that I liked (and you’ve persuaded me that it’s actually bad) it was more the “store the data on your site and we’ll retrieve it” that I liked.
