Connection to semantic news group

Hello,

I will be meeting some people from the Press Association (and
hopefully also the BBC) in a few weeks for a chat about provenance,
particularly from the view of veracity of information obtained by
journalists. At least one of them, Jarred McGinnis, is part of the W3C
Semantic News Community Group [1], which (as I understand) is starting
to define ontologies for news feed entities, best practices for linked
open data in news, etc. Jarred seems keen to make connections with our
WG.

I haven't kept up in the detail I should have with the Connection TF,
so I'm not sure if we already have a contact with this group. If there
are particular possibilities the WG would like me to pursue beyond
encouraging them to take notice of the WG's work, please let me know.
I see Jarred fairly regularly, as he setting up other collaborations
with my research group, so there's no particular deadline.

Thanks,
