&lt;br /&gt;
:'' ... (please post your agenda ideas here; identify yourself for follow-up purposes)'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Agenda &amp;amp; Proceedings  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Meeting called to order: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[SusanTurnbull|Susan Turnbull]] 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;
* review and adopt agenda &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Roll Call: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* see [http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OKMDS/OrganizingCommitteeMeeting_2007_10_30#nid15GI above] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Issues brought forward: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* postmortem of the 25-Oct-2007 session - ConferenceCall_2007_10_25 &lt;br /&gt;
** what worked well? &lt;br /&gt;
*** the session was excellent &lt;br /&gt;
*** session page looks great now, with the screenshots &lt;br /&gt;
** what didn't? &lt;br /&gt;
*** everyone appears under their alias in Second Life ... what can we do to improve on the 'networking' when people actually don't know each other by their aliases &lt;br /&gt;
**** the gaming world which SL was probably first designed for, is probably not exactly for us &lt;br /&gt;
**** we need some sort of convention about naming people &lt;br /&gt;
**** the &amp;quot;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;JamieB Tomorrow&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;quot; example (which [[JamieClark]] (James Bryce Clarke) used as his alias) was easy to recognize &lt;br /&gt;
**** the NASA Guest &amp;quot;label&amp;quot; should work well too &lt;br /&gt;
** what are we going to do differently? &lt;br /&gt;
*** need to clarify to people that they can get the full OKMDS series programming/content either way ('real life' or 'second life'), people just being on augmented conference call are '''not at all''' penalized &lt;br /&gt;
*** question: are sessions being archived (or links to the archive available) at the NASA/JPL Second Life site? Would be nice if we can implement that. &lt;br /&gt;
*** we need some sort of convention about naming people so as to help the networking &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Status of developing issues: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Outstanding Issue Update: ''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Tie down details of the 08-Nov-2007 [[OKMDS]] Launch Event &lt;br /&gt;
** ref. last week's discussion (Oct-25): &lt;br /&gt;
** (suggested) general agenda for the Nov-8 launch event: &lt;br /&gt;
*** Opening and welcome  -- Peter &lt;br /&gt;
*** Andrew and Jeanne will set out the agenda and the questions to be discussed to maintain focus as people get used to the environment &lt;br /&gt;
*** 5 minutes for pre-brief.  This will establish the context and set the focus. &lt;br /&gt;
*** 15 to 20 minutes to go around the room asking each person to give a short introduction (NOT a presentation!) about themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
*** 30 to 45 minutes for the main presentation done by Andrew and Jeanne. &lt;br /&gt;
*** 30 minutes.  Open discussion.  Issues that were not addressed can be registered with the chat window. &lt;br /&gt;
*** Conclusion / Follow-up - ask people to subscribe to discussion list, and actively discuss/debate the issues &lt;br /&gt;
** Agreed that the 08-Nov-2007 [[OKMDS]] Launch Event would consist of three parts &lt;br /&gt;
*** 1. Initiative Overview &lt;br /&gt;
*** 2. First presentation of the series by Andrew and Jeanne &lt;br /&gt;
*** 3. Review of organizing process and communication options to ensure full participation by interested individuals - how to join discussion forum, listserv cross-posting?, RSS feeds, podcasts of sessions &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* suggest program content for the next 2~3 months or even the entire 6 months of the mini-series &lt;br /&gt;
** speaker sessions - candidate speaker, topic, date (for each) &lt;br /&gt;
** panel discussions - topic, chair/moderator, candidate panelists (for each) &lt;br /&gt;
** Suggestions: &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter: SOFI panel - Gordon, Glenn, Yim, Baclawski, Cassidy &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter: Dialog mapping - Conklin, Shum, Park et al. &lt;br /&gt;
*** Susan: Morrison on IARPA funded research IC use of knowledge/decision environments &lt;br /&gt;
*** Ken: &amp;quot;Living with Uncertainty&amp;quot; - panel on probabilistic reasoning and decision support &lt;br /&gt;
*** Ken: ontology-based Dialog Planning for Relational Medicine &lt;br /&gt;
*** Jeanne / Andy should probably have some great stuff at NASA we can draw upon &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* General consensus (from participants at this call): &lt;br /&gt;
** stay focused on our mission - ref. mission statement: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OKMDS#nid152K &lt;br /&gt;
** may need to reiterate between our mission statement and the programing to make sure they align &lt;br /&gt;
** identify who can be speakers at the intersections (not just the domain experts) &lt;br /&gt;
** have people from different community vantage points comment on the experts' presentations &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* identify &amp;quot;discussion moderators&amp;quot; to champion/focus on particular questions we want to investigate/explore &lt;br /&gt;
** online discourse - topic, moderator, candidate (invited) experts to help lead &amp;amp; contribute to the discussion &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Online discourse - need to clarify on the logistics and mechanics of cross-posting to [KMgov] and [okmds-convene] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* define (ultimate) deliverables of this entire mini-series &lt;br /&gt;
** paper(s), publications? &lt;br /&gt;
** wikipedia article? &lt;br /&gt;
** content on the website - what? how? who? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Discussed at the last (Oct-25) call: &lt;br /&gt;
** Agreed that focus area champions would be conducive to fruitful discussions within and across the many pathways of exploration anticipated; the questions will also help frame the discussions &lt;br /&gt;
** Need to determine our deliverables and the form(s) of the anticipated outcome of this mini-seminar series ... candidates include: &lt;br /&gt;
*** A Communique similar to what was developed by [[UpperOntologySummit]] (2006) or [[OntologySummit2007|Ontology Summit 2007]] &lt;br /&gt;
*** Scaffold for anticipated emergence of a Community of Practice &lt;br /&gt;
*** [3 additional ideas added by [[SusanTurnbull|Susan Turnbull]] when completing session notes] &lt;br /&gt;
*** Partial answers to initial questions with associated community &amp;quot;confidence/ consensus / validation&amp;quot; ratings associated with each question -&amp;gt; precipitating a more refined set of questions to launch a future mini-seminar series &lt;br /&gt;
*** Initial &amp;quot;start-up&amp;quot; scenario sketches valued by cross-boundary organizations seeking to lightly organize around shared purpose and uncertain how to proceed - Best Gleanings from the Series as a Primer &lt;br /&gt;
**** from J. Seely Brown - Beginnings and Endings are always the most difficult. &lt;br /&gt;
*** example from Judith Olson's decade long research summarized as [http://colab.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ExpeditionWorkshop/PioneeringGovernanceMechanisms_TowardMissionDeliveryNetworkedWorld_2005_09_23#nid2YHJ Collaboration Wizard] &lt;br /&gt;
** Prepare additional 2-3 sessions (dates, presenters, topics) to announce on Nov. 8 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Discussions:''' &lt;br /&gt;
** [[SusanTurnbull|Susan Turnbull]]: note that on 16-Nov-2007, there will be a [http://www.ndu.edu/fedconsortium.html Federal Consortium for Virtual Worlds Conference].  If you cannot attend the meeting physically, you can attend through Second Life at the following NOAA SLURL: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Meteora/199/138/28 &lt;br /&gt;
*** [[NancyFaget|Nancy Faget]] did ask (a) if our friends from NASA/JPL are involved, and (b) to please try telling participants there about our OKMDS mini-series &lt;br /&gt;
** World Usability Day - 08-Nov-2007 too, this year's theme is Healthcare - see: http://worldusabilityday.org &lt;br /&gt;
*** Ken: starting new project on &amp;quot;Dialog&amp;quot; in healthcare with relational agents ... will be able to report on that later &lt;br /&gt;
