Re: AIKR CG Objectives & Roles

Please, Paola, stop.  You're about to put me over the edge.

I've long been dreaming about engaging a bunch of students in a brigade 
to do for public agencies what they should be doing for themselves, 
i.e., publishing their performance plans and reports in an open, 
standard, machine-readable format like StratML.  While I've been hoping 
it might happen in India, I can't imagine the Chinese or Russian 
government, for example, would stand for that but, hey, I love to be 
proven wrong ... about such delirious dreams.

Far short of that, it would be wonderful if someone could develop a 
query service that leverages the semantics and structure of the StratML 
schema as per the requirements outlined at Query/Discovery 
<http://stratml.us/carmel/iso/SMLTASwStyle.xml#_15446932-208f-11e6-a80e-7333871eb3cb> 
- Enable not only full-text but also faceted querying and discovery of 
discrete elements of StratML documents.

There are more than 4,000 plans in the StratML collection 
<http://stratml.us/drybridge/index.htm> that can be used for 
demonstration purposes.  Hopefully, someday the collection will become 
too valuable to ignore or, at least, to treat as any old unstructured 
information, as the incumbent full-text indexing services apparently do.
