* [[OntologySummit2007|Organizing Committee Membership]]
** missing responses / confirmations
** more web 2.0 representation - maybe as convener; ping other organizing committee members for suggestion
*** David (and his friend Peter Merholv) suggested: Gene, Karen, Margaret, Chiara & Paolo
**** David will try to engage these people on our behalf (or see who else they would suggest)
*** invitations have since been extended to those individuals
*** as well as to [[PaolaDiMaio]] (current Ontolog member)
* discussion: our deliverables
** 3 months of virtual discourse
** 3 half-day face-to-face technical workshop
*** (a) ...
*** (b) ...
*** (c) ...
** a half-day open public meeting (with press)
** a written communique
** new: how about a poster? (--suggested: ppy / 2007.01.22)
* discussion: our approach & process
** Nicola: short position papers
*** Leo: hope the wiki page will help contain that ... with "gardeners" to administer them
** David / Steve / Peter : defining ontologies should not be the goal here ... more like reaching an understanding of what each community refers to when they say "ontology"
*** Steve / David: think we should need to be "very approachable" and simple, at least at first encounter
** Ivan: no need to draw distinction between EU and US semantic web communities
** Ivan: [[ChrisWelty|Chris Welty]] is chairing a Rules working group that is also putting rules and reasoning into a similar framework
** Ivan: be careful on the use of the word "ontology" because it scares away the layman ... I use "vocabulary", but that probably isn't the right word
*** Leo: I would make distinction between "terminology" and "ontology"
* Assessment of current progress
** seeding the discussion?
** assigning / self-selecting thread moderators?
** co-editor volunteers solicitation?
* distributing the organizing chore
** engaging participants from specific target communties
*** formal ontologist
*** XML community - OASIS - Peter to contact Patrick Gannon
*** semantic web communities
**** RDF community
**** OWL-DL (discription logic) community
**** OWL full community
*** the Applications Development community
**** database community
**** UML community - Steve: will ask [[ConradBock|Conrad Bock]] & [[EvanWallace|Evan Wallace]]; Leo: [[ElisaKendall|Elisa Kendall]] too ... it's great that they all straddle both ontologies and object models
**** software engineering / programmer community
*** [[FOAF]] community - Ivan: it is spread out and no one seems to be leading now
*** Micro-Formats ([[GRDDL]]) community - ?
*** Concept Map community
*** SEARCH community - [[ChrisWelty|Chris Welty]] might point us to something given IBM's work in UIMA
**** statistical
**** semantic
*** wiki & semantic wiki community -
*** Web 2.0 community (social network, folksonomy) - David is championing
**** Ivan: suggesting again Tom Gruber - Peter: [[DeborahMcGuinness]] will be the person to help us, hopefully
***** Tom Gruber contacted and confirmed (--ppy/2007.02.01 with help from PatHayes)
*** Thesauri community - [[ChristianeFellbaum|Christiane Fellbaum]]
*** metadata world / dublin core / SKOS / Librarians / Taxonomists / KM community - [[DeniseBedford|Denise Bedford]]; Ivan also suggests Thomas Baker
*** ISO-11179 folks - [[FrankOlken|Frank Olken]] is our man
** drafting the communique
** ...
** Leo: 10 dimensions (see 1/25/07 post); get people to post under an appropriate subject line
** Olivier: take advantage of the wiki; list the things that we don't want to discussed
** Peter: as Steve mentioned, I'll "garden" the wiki, but I'll need help

6. Any Other Business:

* to get W3C's official involvement in this initiative, Ivan suggests:
** contact Ian Jacobs <ij-at-w3.org> who is the communications chair
** mention that Chris and Ivan are already involved in the organizing committee
** W3C might be more receptive to "co-sponsor" than "co-organizer"

* Steve will make a post to get the conversation organized

* Peter will send an invitation to Thomas Baker and refer him to Ivan

7. Schedule Next Meeting & Adjourn:

* it is agreed that the next meeting will be a 30-minute conference call starting at Tue 6-Feb-2007 8:30am PST / 11:30am EST / 5:30pm CET.

* Regular Weekly Meetings:
** choice of regular weekly sync-up call time slot - 30 minutes, starting: Tuesdays 8:30am PST / 11:30am EST
*** Nicola's preference Monday through Thursday 1:30~2:30pm EST / 10:30~11:30am PST / 7:30~8:30pm CET -- Thursdays are out because of a conflict with regularly scheduled Ontolog events
** Deborah's suggested: Mon, Tue or Wednesdays, 11:30am~12:30pm EST / 8:30~9:30am PST / 5:30~6:30pm CET; sometimes i could make 8am PST / 11am EST / 5pm CET on friday
** Steve: The one day I can't meet is Wednesdays after 1:30pm EST / 10:30am PST / 7:30pm CET
** Ivan: Tuesday evening would be *ideal* for me at those times. Mondays and Wednesdays are not
possible *at all* at those times.
** Peter: Tuesdays are ok now ... I have rescheduled other things to open up Tuesdays now.
