Mr. Bullard, I have reduced you fri, 24 feb 2006 post and attempted to
summarize it for my understanding. Please tell me if I have it right.
Thanks. sterling
Cooperative Principle is a concept by Grice:
it says to be useful a taxonomy should classify and order its objects in
ways which correspond to how it might be used?
to use it requires efficient methods to access the designed content:
operationally: simple primitives for hardware
functionally: assumptions about the presentation to the user
http verbs imply: efficient coding
SOAP implies efficient physical means to retrieve the content
identifiers ( metawords) imply search recognition efficiency
design effort: implies a worthy value on return to a search hit.
