Re: Group call

Dear all,

Apologies for the long silence and tks Carsten for "re-igniting" this
group.

- Brainstorm about existing standards (both SemWeb-based and other relevant
to the field): Great Idea
- Brainstorm about use cases: Linkages with UN Global Pulse and its big
data project could be something we can all look into.
- Options for face to face meetings: I am in New York for a
meeting/conference on the week of 7 October, would be lovely to catch up
with anyone who is around. Let me know.

- Organize a workshop at ISCRAM:As far as the organizing a workshop in
ISCRAM is concerned, I agree with Hemant that CrisisMappers in Nairobi
could be a curtain raiser and almost a litmus test for things that could be
included in ISCRAM. The crisismappers conference will be organized in the
UN Compund where I have my office - so more than happy to help. Tks

- Virtual seminarBrainstorm on use case: I am game. If we could agree on a
date and time at least 2 weeks early - will help everyone either to sleep
early/late and wake up early/late :-)

Looking forward to it.



Best Regards,
