I'm not arguing that TAP is not interesting, but I think you are overly limiting yourself by restricting the discussion to KR, "frames", "AI" or whatever. At the basic level, the first step is about an open and interoperable metadata format. That alone should be interesting and will prove to be very useful, IMO.
