    • Candidate Sep. 2005 session(s) - we could probably do either one or both:
      • Jon Bosak of Sun on OASIS Process - suggested (KurtConrad / SusanTurnbull) at our 2005.03.03 Planning Session - Susan: the 2005.09.23 CEW on implication on governance ... would be ideal. [Kurt will follow up with Jon and Susan]
        • possibility of this rolling into a joint SICoP or CEW-multiple CoP Best Practice event (suggested: Susan Turnbull / 2005.03.03)
      • BillMcCarthy suggested John Sowa (try, either Sep. 1 or 6, 2005) - Bill will write John about this
    • future candidates speakers:
    • other suggestions:
  • Scheduled Discussions for the next 2 months
    • David Whitten: maybe we should designate a moderator, and then coordinate the event from there, in a fashion similar to speaker events.
    • more work/discussion on OWL
      • Adam: need OWL & SWRL for OWL ontologies to really be useful
    • Nicolas Rouquette -- topics lined up?

      • let's work with John Domingue toward a Oct 2005 panel discussion, with the 3 above viewpoints represented

6) Follow-ups from previous calls

  • Note of thanks to a great session last week -- it's another ground-breaking event for Ontolog
    • What worked well?
      • we picked a right topic
        • current, timeliness
        • hot, relevant
        • appropriate for discussion, significantly immature
      • prospect of competing expert viewpoint
      • we were able to put this together quickly
      • stakeholders find value in an inexpensive CoP setting (compared to peer-reviewed publication and conference)
    • What can be improved?
      • Bill: would be nice if we have some visibility on who wanted to speak, queue up questions, etc.
        • Peter: we have a space on the wiki for it ... but it's more the culture than the tool
    • follow-ups with the POSE / IMS people?
      • consensus that we stay put, but will generally be receptive to collaborate, either individually or collectively
