Whilst i've written a long-response (as i have the habit of doing from time to time) the summary of it, is that in-order to deal with some of the emerging issues brought about by the implementation of verifiable claims, no-matter who is in the room when the decisions are made, perhaps we should engage those who are stakeholders in it. I've tried looking at an array of social frameworks to do so, it seems the interest pertains to economic use not social considerations. I have strong views, but as with everyone - i am limited by what i can do based on how my 'resume' is perceived by others and how that in-turn provides me an opportunity to economically participate in society. The influence of economic participation indeed impacts life and the quality of life afforded to persons. So, it made sense to me that we should think about setting-up an opportunity to discuss the sorts of issues and functionality frameworks being used by people in industries who would never have participated in W3C before let alone have knowledge of what an ontology is... Support and contributions welcome :) Perhaps privately message me your google-docs address?
