RE: [OWG] Telecon Details and Agenda

Eric,

The minutes will be posted on the Wiki soon. Am attaching them to this e-mail as
well.

Your point is well taken. Per our conversations we have decided to focus on the
following aspects:

Short term (6 months):
1. Converge on 1-2 use cases for analysis. Alan Ruttenberg has created use
   cases for the BIORDF group which has a lot of "ontology" related stuff in
   it. We will start with his use cases.
2. Start identifying and enumerating "ontology like" artifacts required for 
   a solution to the use case. Come up with engineering and pragmatic
   definitions for the same.
3. Set up a wiki for collaborative ontology development and start "posting"
   ontology fragments from the use cases for iterative refinement.

Long term (2 years):
1. Evolve a set of best practices from the above activity
2. Solution design for the use cases identified above. A demo if possible.

Out of Scope:
1. Ontology Quality Measures
2. Ontology Evaluation

Comments, feedback welcome.
