=== Agenda Ideas  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Discuss - what could ensure us that we are bringing &amp;quot;value&amp;quot; to the community-at-large, with this &amp;quot;Ontology Summit 2007&amp;quot; endeavor? &lt;br /&gt;
* organizing committee structure and protocol - distributing the workload &lt;br /&gt;
* getting organized to get dialogs from representatives of other constituencies (other than formal ontologists) going - review/add/comment on list of people who could represent various constituencies and contribute to providing their input and perspectives &lt;br /&gt;
* getting organized to summarize/synthesize the mailing list discussions on the wiki - devoting part of the 15-Mar-2007 Ontolog weekly call to do it with Summit conveners &lt;br /&gt;
* Deborah: I suggest that in this and in near term meetings we try to get very tight scope; &lt;br /&gt;
* '' ... (please post here; indentify yourself for follow-up purposes)'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Agenda &amp;amp; Proceedings  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
... ''(Agenda Coming)'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Meeting called to order: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[OlivierBodenreider|Olivier Bodenreider]] took the chair and welcomed everyone &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]] volunteered to take minutes of the meeting &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Roll Call: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* see [http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007/OrganizingCommitteeMeeting_2007_03_13#nidUW0 above] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Urgent Issues: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a 'framework' ready, when inputs are returned on our survey. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* getting the community-specific discussions going: &lt;br /&gt;
** see (communities enumerated): http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_DefinitionsOfOntology#nidTIS &lt;br /&gt;
** and (champions we have in mind): http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007/OrganizingCommitteeMeeting_2007_01_30#nidSZQ &lt;br /&gt;
** action: ... &lt;br /&gt;
*** Ivan: consider asking people to identify what community they belong to &lt;br /&gt;
*** Nicola: we catalog, and map out the framework &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter: ask various communities to put together a glossary of their ontology (or ontology-related) vocabulary &lt;br /&gt;
*** Steve / Nicola: ask various community representative to where they think they fit in &lt;br /&gt;
*** try getting Tom Gruber to present his view some time soon, that is going to help - Tom has posted, both [http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontology-summit/2007-03/msg00029.html on 'ontology'] and [http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontology-summit/2007-03/msg00031.html on 'folksonomy']. Thanks, Tom! &lt;br /&gt;
*** Steve: steer away from the word 'ontology' and just ask other communities how they define their 'structures' &lt;br /&gt;
*** Olivier / Steve: we should be the USGS (cartographers) rather than the UN (peacekeepers) of 'ontologies' here. &lt;br /&gt;
*** Steve / Leo: start putting something up (a draft) so that people have something to talk about &lt;br /&gt;
**** cadidates to drive the drafting: [[LeoObrst|Leo Obrst]], [[MichaelGruninger|Michael Gr&amp;amp;uuml;ninger]], ... with support from Steve, Olivier &lt;br /&gt;
**** start from the draft communique wiki page ... and have anyone contribute even small chunks (without major time commitments) &lt;br /&gt;
**** maybe someone could start by drafting a table-of-content - Steve? &lt;br /&gt;
**** when ready for another round of reviews, someone makes a post to [ontology-summit] list &lt;br /&gt;
**** use combination of wiki, spreadsheet (google spreadsheet for collaborative editing, and excel for the purpose) &lt;br /&gt;
*** thanks to [[DeborahMcGuinness]], she has [http://interop.cim3.net/forum//ontology-summit-org/2007-03/msg00017.html#nid01 volunteered] to co-lead the ontology spectrum discussion and writeup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussion: &lt;br /&gt;
** Good News! - Olivier advises that NLM has officially confirmed that we may list them as a 'co-sponsor'. (Thank you, Olivier!) &lt;br /&gt;
** What could ensure us that we are bringing &amp;quot;value&amp;quot; to the community-at-large (or even the world-at-large), with this &amp;quot;Ontology Summit 2007&amp;quot; endeavor? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* assigning wiki editors &lt;br /&gt;
** volunteers: [[CharlesTurnitsa|Charles Turnitsa]], [[KurtConrad|Kurt Conrad]], [[BobSmith|Bob Smith]], [[User:KennethBaclawski|Ken Baclawski]], [[SteveRay|Steve Ray]], [[DeborahMcGuinness]], [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]] ... (need more, hopefully from our community champions) &lt;br /&gt;
** protocol &amp;amp; editor coordination - Peter: suggest we try to engage the conveners and devote a good part of the 15-Mar-2007 Ontolog weekly call to do it &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Outstanding Issues: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Completed Task Report: &lt;br /&gt;
** &amp;quot;tag line&amp;quot; for the &amp;quot;Ontology Summit 2007&amp;quot; initiative announced. see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontology-summit/2007-03/msg00028.html &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Surveying participants &amp;amp; getting constituency champions' perspectives &lt;br /&gt;
** Peter: please review and comment on draft-2 of survey questions (for process proposal-2): &lt;br /&gt;
*** draft-2 questionnaire: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft2#nidUFO &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter is [http://interop.cim3.net/forum//ontology-summit-org/2007-03/msg00022.html posted] to the [ontology-summit-org] list on 2007.03.12, a list of folks who could represent perspectives of various constituencies. Input solicited from organizing committee members. &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter is still working on the survey; he will move ahead and release the survey; and then personal contact to targeted champions to get their inputs. Help to spread this workload appreciated. &lt;br /&gt;
** Peter: we'll give people 7~10 days to respond &lt;br /&gt;
** Barry / Olivier: if people provide elaborate answers, we'll request them to summarize it in bullet points &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Outstanding Issue Update: &lt;br /&gt;
** organizing committee structure and protocol &lt;br /&gt;

***** Peter: e.g. the UML people &lt;br /&gt;
***** Barry: e.g. Oil &amp;amp; Gas work Matthew West is doing should be in this category &lt;br /&gt;
****** Peter our objective is to develop a typology (rather than telling people how they should use the word &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot;) &lt;br /&gt;
******* Barry suggested we still consider establishing a &amp;quot;controlled vocabulary&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
**** Olivier / Barry: try to engage [[FrankHartel|Frank Hartel]] (Peter suggest Olivier contacts Frank as a champion), also [[ChristopherChute|Christopher Chute]]; Peter re-iterates the solicitation for suggestions to his constituency/champion [http://interop.cim3.net/forum//ontology-summit-org/2007-03/msg00022.html post] &lt;br /&gt;
