I interpreted Hans' message as reporting the usual problem with building
|
|
ontologies -- the world isn't strictly hierarchical and people wouldn't
|
|
agree on the hierarchy even if it was. I think you interpred his message
|
|
differently, because I don't see how a conditional import mechanism would
|
|
help this problem.

"Future press releases on the issue will clearly state that the research

was sponsored by Microsoft."
