Join the W3C Emergency Information Interoperability Framework (EIIF) Incubator Group (Call for Participation)

W3C is pleased to announce the creation of the Emergency Information  
Interoperability Framework Incubator Group, sponsored by W3C Members  
NICTA, Google, SICS, and IBM.

The mission of the Emergency Information Interoperability Framework  
(EIIF) Incubator Group is to review and analyse the current state-of- 
the-art in vocabularies used in emergency management functions and to  
investigate the path forward via an emergency management systems  
information interoperability framework. These activities will lay the  
groundwork for a more comprehensive approach to ontology management  
and semantic information interoperability leading to a proposal for  
future longer-term W3C Working Group activity.
