The Ontogenesis Knowledgeblog: Lightweight publishing about semantics, with lightweight semantic publishing

The web has moved from a minority interest tool to one of the most heavily used platforms for publication. Despite originally being designed by and for academics, it has left academic publishing largely untouched; most papers are available on-line, but in PDF and are most easily read once printed. Here, we describe our experiments with using commodity web technology to replace the existing publishing process; the resource describing ontologies that we have developed with this platform; and, finally, the implications that this may have for publishing in a semantic web framework.
