Apparently, the European Semantic Web Conference will be renamed to Extended Semantic Web Conference. That is fantastic news, the original name was so boring. However, renaming to extended seems a lost opportunity to me: the organisers of all major Semantic Web conferences should come together and adopt far more exciting names. Some suggestions came up:
- “International Semantic Web Conference” to “Incredible Semantic Web Conference”
- “Asian Semantic Web Conference” to “Amazing Semantic Web Conference”
- “European Semantic Web Conference” to “Extraordinary Semantic Web Conference”
