    • Sep. 30, 2005 - Esther Dyson's "Personal Health Conference" in New York City
  • Scheduled Discussions for the next 2 months - candidates:
    • Adam: need OWL & SWRL for OWL ontologies to really be useful
    • Nicolas Rouquette -- other topics lined up?
    • a panel with speaker representating: SUMO, OpenCyc Upper Ontology, DOLCE, ... (suggested by PeterYim)
      • possibly teaming up with SICoP and their CUO-WG; after independent sessions on Cyc and DOLCE
    • Rex: possibility of working with Duane on a follow-up to the last SOA discussion
    • Rex suggsted we should also invite UDDI and XMDR people, and possibly to have all three parties (regrep, uddi & xmdr) on a panel
    • we will not schedule a technical discussion in Sep. 2005
    • candidates for November, 2005
      • Rex: propose "Emergency Response"
      • Kurt: we should revisit "CCTS ontology" for Nov. (even Sep.) - we'll talk to Duane again if he shows up next week; if he doesn't Kurt, will ping Duane.
      • Anders: we should have a "Tools / Testing" discussion
      • Kurt: "on metamodels, independent of the representation" (at a level that allows us to avoid the language war)
        • Bob: as a segway into things like pi-calculus, tec.
      • Peter P. Yim: "moving from data standards to data-model- and semantic-model-driven eBusiness standards"
      • Duane Nickull: "Ontological and Semantic Implementation Panel" - some time in the future - Duane will start a page in preparation on it
    • EMichaelMaximilien: suggest we use some sort of IM tool (or other real time signaling) so that the moderator could know who has a question.
  • Upcoming Events of interest
    • Sep. 14, 2005 - 2nd DRM Public Forum (Washington DC) (Mark & Peter will be presenting their SMI/CIM3 Public Collaborative Ontology Development Server)

      • divergence (good spectrum of representation) of the panel
      • great resource collected
      • good follow-up responses and postings
    • what could be improved
    • ideas for the future
      • Rex: don't mind doing a follow-up session, with the same people, but no presentations, so that we can devote the full time to discussion
      • Kurt: we should do this sooner or later
    • other remarks
      • Rex: let's shoot for Thu Nov. 3, 2005 - Rex will post to the forum and seek people's availability
  • possible meeting/call to follow-up with UDEF folks to review Ontolog's comments (suggested by MikeDaconta) [attn: DuaneNickull]

    • Duane will try to organize a conference with the parties cconcerned
      • Kurt: also help us hone our ability to effectively engage the standards group
    • Peter to e-mail the Ontolog comments to Pat Cassidy or anyone else who would be interested
  • Bob and Nicolas will work on the ontological lessons learned in our exercise on RegularConferenceCall scheduling

7) Current Project Status Report

  • Status of Protege-KIF project work

    • representation and paper submission to FCW Government Health IT Conference - Nov. 17~18, 2005, Washington, D.C.
  • UBL liaison report
  • SICoP liaison report

8) project work session / discussion

9) New project proposals

10) Sponsorship and funding

11) Other business

  • Ed Dodds / Bob Smith: Semantic Technology Conference in San Jose has a C4P due September 12 for March 2006
    • Peter P. Yim: since this is more a "commercial" activity -- educating the public nonetheless, which Ontolog definitely supports -- encouraging Ontolog members to participate "on their own" (and using Ontolog material where they feel appropriate) would probably be more appropriate than billing this as an "Ontolog activity".

12) Next meeting date and adjourn

  • regular call adjourned 11:41 am PDT
  • next call will be on Thu 2005-09-08 starting at 10:30 am PDT
