This is a brief summary of a meeting held 18/09/2003 between Alistair Miles (CCLRC) Nikki Rogers (ILRT) Dave Beckett (ILRT) Dan Brickley (W3C) via IRC. ---------Meeting Summary--------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Topics: 1. Modular RDF vocabularies for thesaurus-like data. 2. Use cases and requirements for thesaurus services. 1. Modular RDF vocabularies for thesaurus-like data. The work on RDF vocabs for thesaurus and similar data is progressing well. A proposal for modularising parts of the vocabs was discussed, in relation to a discussion document previously posted to the list by Alistair <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-esw-thes/2003Sep/0002.html>. Understanding how to fit the thesaurus RDF vocabs we are developing into existing vocabs such as OWL was highlighted as a key issue and area for further work. This issue to be studied further as part of deliverables 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6. 2. Use cases and requirements for thesaurus services. We agreed to begin work on development of a thesaurus web service with a thorough study of scenarios and use cases. The question of whether to begin and maintain a public list of use cases was raised, to be agreed upon shortly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- View latest SWAD Thesaurus Activity at http://www.w3c.rl.ac.uk/SWAD/thesaurus.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- Summary written by: Alistair Miles.
