  * Service providers '''''must''''' semantically-type their output data according to the OWL document describing their output such that the client can recognize the nodes that have been decorated by the service.  Clients may chose (probably will want to) strip the rdf:type tag off of the returning data.
 
+ == Web Services to Wrap ==
 
+ * We decided that WABI services cannot be efficiently wrapped ''en masse'' because many (most?) of them output non-standardized, tab-delimited flatfiles; adding semantics into these files would require us to write a special parser for each service... BZZZZT!  We suggest that, at a minimum, WABI services should output XML such that we can use generic parsers and generic tools (e.g. XSLT) to add semantics into these services.
+ * TOGO services are nicer, but don't have a WSDL (because they are RESTful).  As such, there is no way for us to wrap them other than one-by-one...  BZZZZZZT!
+ * We have asked Oswaldo to suggest which WABI services he thinks are most interesting/useful for his integration with the Spanish INB, and we will wrap these services during the hackathon as SADI and/or Moby services.
