--------------------
This group aims to consult with current and potential users of
lingusitic data to assemble user cases and requirements for Language
Technology Applications that use Linked Data. The results will be used
to guide future interoperability, research and development activities
spanning the language technology and linked data domains, including via
the OntoLex and BP-MLOD community groups.


Potential users are companies and public bodies involved in content
management, the language services and localisation industry and other
applications of content analytics techniques used in search, recommender
systems, sentiment analysis and terminology management.


The group will engage with users through surveys and international
road-mapping events organised by an EU-funded R&D consortium called
LIDER. Contributions can be provided openly through engagement with the
Community Group or anonymously if preferred. The anonymised outcomes of
this exercise, in terms of use case and requirements priorities,
technology gaps and interoperability roadblocks will be made publicly
available via this community group by May 2014.
