From the announcement:
This special issue of SIGMOD Record seeks papers describing visions of future systems, frameworks, algorithms, applications, and technology related to the management or use of data. The goal of this special issue is to promote the discussion and sharing of challenges and ideas that are not necessarily well-explored at the time of writing, but have potential for significantly expanding the possibilities and horizons of the field of databases and data management. The submissions will be evaluated on their originality, significance, potential impact, and interest to the community, with less emphasis on the current level of maturity, technical depth, and evaluation.

If “visionary” means not yet widely implemented, I think topic maps would easily qualify for this issue. From HDFS to CSV, I haven’t seen another solution for documenting the identity of subjects in data sets. Thoughts? (Modulo the CSV work I mentioned from the W3C quite recently. CSV on the Web:… [ .csv 5,250,000, .rdf 72,700].)
