&lt;br /&gt;
* wordsmith and adoption of a &amp;quot;one-line statement&amp;quot; of our purpose - didn't get around to this on this call &lt;br /&gt;
** see draft at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?UpperOntologySummit#nidJCB &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Develop the mechanism and resources to relate existing upper ontologies to &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
each other in a manner that will increase reuse of knowledge among them, and thereby &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
facilitate semantic interoperability among other ontologies that are linked to them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We want to let the world know that the technology is converging and is poised &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for commercial exploitation. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8) New Issues discussed: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Co-sponsor &amp;quot;definition&amp;quot; review and adoption - ref: http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/uos-convene/2006-03/msg00054.html#nid02 &lt;br /&gt;
** Choosing between: &lt;br /&gt;
*** Peter's: &amp;quot;'Co-sponsors' are organizations who are providing technical or funding support, and/or endorsing the purpose of this Upper Ontology Summit effort.&amp;quot;, or &lt;br /&gt;
*** Mike's: &amp;quot;'Co-sponsors' are organizations who that provide technical or funding support.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
** adopted: &amp;quot;('Co-sponsors' are organizations who are providing technical or funding support, and/or endorsing the purpose of this Upper Ontology Summit)&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
** not changing because the shorter version may need some original candidates to be eliminated &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Inviting others &lt;br /&gt;
** w3c - ref: http://interop.cim3.net/forum//uos-org/2006-02/msg00134.html &lt;br /&gt;
** communities already covered &lt;br /&gt;
** who else &lt;br /&gt;
** international standards community? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Meeting session agenda review and adoption &lt;br /&gt;
** Planning the meeting agenda &lt;br /&gt;
** issue and problem focused; opportunity and challenge focused &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Pat: cosnider requesting from the conveners &lt;br /&gt;
** examples - where has UO been used, and what was the significance &lt;br /&gt;
*** UMLS? (a semantic network and not a ontology yet! ... can we demonstrate the point with it?) &lt;br /&gt;
** scenarios &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Brand: &lt;br /&gt;
** FHA is asking to bring Ontology into their data architecture work - and is willing to do a pilot on that &lt;br /&gt;
** it's not going to help us if we keep identifying differences between upper and domain ontologies &lt;br /&gt;
** cast UO as an indispensable part of infrastructure &lt;br /&gt;
** Leo: we should not compromise our focus of this event as the 'upper ontology' summit &lt;br /&gt;
** Peter / Steve / Pat: we need an overview piece on 3/15 pm, a spoke person, presenting a jointly contributed piece &lt;br /&gt;
*** Steve work follow-up on this &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
