(4+1) Recognize that there may already be an ontology like FOAF that 
describes the same content that every can agree requires the same amount 
of work for each community for a translator for their format.  Each 
community can then feel like they aren't giving anything up, and there's 
fewer egos involved in deciding which one is better.
