        - Argues that we don't yet have genuine semantic publishing. Most approaches so far "tack on" semantics (broadly construed) to existing papers, without changing what is published in the first place.
        - Includes history of attempts, ranging from [[std/Research Objects]] to [[Structured Digital Abstracts]] to [[std/Micropublication]] and [[std/Nanopublications]], and [[Scholarly HTML]] (p. 142-145)

        - Claims that we have all the tech we need already; problem remaining is an [[Authoring Bottleneck]] one (p. 148)
            - Also talks about better ontologies, but I think that is related to the [[Authoring Bottleneck]]; seems to me that the ontology needs authors to grow (can't predefine everything!)

            - "It turns out that all the technologies needed for applying genuine semantic publishing are already available and most of them are very mature and reliable. There are no __technical__ obstacles preventing us from releasing our results from today on as genuine semantic publications, even though more work is needed on ontologies that cover all relevant aspects and areas and on nice and intuitive end-user interfaces to make this process as easy as possible."
