Daniel I completely apologise for my tone and for suggesting enrolment in my courses This was intended ironically and resulting of my own frustration in reading your AI generated materials and responses I rephrase: it seems that you are not familiar with the spatial knowledge representation domain and I suggest you familiarise yourself with the learning resources available *it is true tho that if you need specific guidance from me you need to enrol in one of my courses I am glad to receive an email from you that sounds written by a human, expressing human concerns what about if in your 10 minutes slot today we discuss where you are coming from *that is what is colloquially referred to as coming from another planet, and you get the chance to air exactly all the points that you state in your email below PLUS give a demo and we can take things from there? I apologise sincerely for causing offense and once again thank you for stepping up and enabling this exchange P On Fri, Nov 14, 2025 at 12:12 PM Daniel Ramos <capitain_jack@yahoo.com> wrote: > Paola, > > You are the chair of this CG and I fully accept that you set the scope and > decide what is in or out for our agenda.
