Note to myself: 3 out of 4 platinum sponsors of ISWC 2009 are arms manufacturer companies

17.June 2009 - 16:12

http://iswc2009.semanticweb.org/ lists Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon.

I feel sad, dump and guilty now

Interesting detail: Raytheon was founded by Vannevar Bush. And I hoped, this military/ internet technology complex is historical only.

Update from 20.06: Northrop Grumman disappeared from the sponsor list.

Don’t be sad. None of these companies was influential for Wehrmacht’s defeat
