New participant introduction

Hello,

My nane is Glen Newton and I am the acting group leader for CISTI
Research. I am also the (Canada) National Research Council 's W3C AC
representative. While my initial training was in biology, the last 15
years I've done GIS R&D, led Internet development teams, and right now
I am doing R&D in information retrieval / information management /
information science.  My interests in the SemWeb-LifeSci group are in
the use of (mostly biological) Semantic Web information to drive the
extraction of knowledge from bio journals, both for search and for
knowledge discovery. 

I have not been able to actively participate in this group until now,
and I will be spending the next week getting up-to-speed, and will
hopefully be able to contribute to the discussion and activities.

Thank-you,

Glen
