  We're not trying to compete for attention in the social web. Part of that is reflected in our involvement with the W3C Open Annotation Working Group (http://www.w3.org/community/openannotation/ http://www.w3.org/community/openannotation/).

In other words, to bring this conversation on HN into the RWW frame and vice versa and to allow better quoting and transclusion between these content silos.
