AW: ODRL is coming back!

Dear Renato,



that’s great news.



I think we badly need profiles for Smart Contracts (Blockchain Technology).

Does anyone already have experiences with it?



Warm regards

Susanne

Betreff: ODRL is coming back!
An: "public-odrl@w3.org Group" <public-odrl@w3.org>
Cc: Ivan Herman <ivan@w3.org>

Dear ODRL Community, this month will see the final review of the ODRL
Version 2.2 specs [1][2] and adoption as formal W3C Recommendations.

(This has been a long, turbulent, but overall, rewarding 17 year journey
for our favourite language!)



For the past 2 years, ODRL has been well looked after by the W3C POE
Working Group [3] which will shortly cease operations as the WG has
delivered on its Charter.



As we now move forward, we plan to move “business-as-usual” operations back
to the ODRL Community Group.



Specifically, we will:

1 - Promote ODRL V2.2 to existing and new sectors/industries

2 - Nurture an ODRL implementors community

3 - Support development of ODRL Profiles (and host for smaller communities)

4 - Register ODRL Profiles

5 - Collaborate with W3C on ODRL errata maintenance

6 - Plan for future major enhancements to ODRL (V3.0)



This is an ambitious scope of work, and we hope all CG members will support
this new work plan.

(Feel free to send in your comments/views/suggestions to the group.)



To assist in the execution of the plan, we propose to add 2 new co-chairs
to the CG.

(Please think of any nominations, and send direct to me.)



To kick start, we plan to have a teleconference in March. We will send more
details soon.



Cheers...

Renato Iannella

Chair, W3C ODRL Community Group
