Phil, Jeff, 

As we discussed at the f2f meeting today, one of the clear value
propositions of the SETF is building bridges to existing research and
practice in software engineering, Along those lines, I recommend Michael
Goedicke and Andrea Zisman as new members of the Software Engineering
Task Force of SWBP.    Both Michael and Andrea are in academia and have
done significant research in the area of using explicitly represented
knowledge to advance software engineering practice - as we discussed
this is a field of endeavor that dates back to at least 1969, with
Cordel Green's PhD thesis.  Michael and Andrea have been involved quite
a bit longer than there has been a semantic web.  I think its important
to have people on board who understand what's already been tried and
failed, since this is not a new idea, but rather needs appropriate
connections to that community.  I believe they would be able to help
with re-drafting the current SETF note.
