Dear AI KR Community Group colleagues,
I’m *Daniel Campos Ramos*, founder of *EchoSystems* and lead maintainer 
of the open‑source *K3D (Knowledge 3‑D)* project. Our teams share the 
same north‑star: to make AI knowledge easier to specify, exchange, and 
reuse. I’m reaching out to invite the AI KR Community Group to 
collaborate on turning K3D into a W3C‑aligned standard.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Why this matters to AI KR
AI KR Priority  How K3D advances it
Rich, reusable vocabularies  K3D links plain‑language terms to formally 
typed nodes, making ontologies explorable by humans /and/ machines.
Facets & provenance  Each K3D node carries first‑class metadata 
(technology, legislation, ethics, etc.)—a perfect companion for your 
“resources & metadata” track.
Open implementations  Reference code (MIT license) for vector DB 
storage, REST/Graph APIs, and a 3‑D browser UI—ready for chat bot/NLU 
pipelines.
Public awareness & learning  A spatial interface lets students /fly 
through/ concept maps instead of paging through PDFs, boosting 
engagement and comprehension.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
      What collaboration could look like
 1.
    *Spec alignment workshops* – Map K3D‑Node attributes to the AI KR
    vocabulary and agree on extension points.
 2.
    *Joint concept‑map pilot* – Build a shared “AI Ethics & Governance”
    space illustrating multi‑facet nodes (policy, datasets, case studies).
 3.
    *Open review cycle* – Publish a draft W3C Community Group Note
    co‑authored by AI KR & EchoSystems contributors.
 4.
    *Community demo day* – Showcase live K3D spaces at an upcoming AI KR
    meeting to gather feedback and recruit maintainers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Ways to get started this week
  *
    *Explore and contribute to the repo:*
    https://github.com/danielcamposramos/Knowledge3D
  *
    *Open an issue:* Tag it *[W3C‑AIKR]* so we can triage collaborative
    tasks quickly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We believe K3D can become the *coordinate system of AI knowledge*, and 
that vision only works if it’s shaped by the community that already 
curates the field’s best practices—namely, you.
I’d be honored to discuss next steps or set up a brief call.
Warm regards,
*Daniel Campos Ramos*
