Hi Jon,
I at last solved the puzzle and understood the real meaning of your
message:
You are basically telling to me to go to a conference or journal. :-)
No problem but we cannot discuss it here publicly? I am not interested in
author-based research. All these people do research but they never discuss
publicly.
http://www.content-based-science.org/
The first question that we need to answer is what we want, before proposing
solutions.
I argue that we need a dirty and happy Internet where everybody do what
they wish.
All these folks should be able to implement what they wish and be reachable
to others.
All of them are correct.
Thanks
