Although this is an IG and cannot produce recommendation track work (i.e. standards), there are mechanisms at W3C we could use. Those that are Member organizations can develop something outside W3C and use the Member Submission process [1], or can start an XG [2]. We as group also have a liaison with the Semantic Web Activity (it's in the charter itself)[2] that could be of help in this case, too. We should also talk to the LOD community (and having Richard around and other LOD Members, this should be more than easy :) This is part of the sort of the discussion we would like us to have today. -- Jose [1] http://www.w3.org/Submission/ [2] http://www.w3.org/2009/06/eGov/ig-charter#coordination.w3c > Sent from my iPhone > > On 31/03/2010, at 7:01, Jose Manuel Alonso <josema.alonso@fundacionctic.org > > wrote: > >> El 30/03/2010, a las 13:17, Ed Summers escribió: >>> On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 4:46 AM, Jose Manuel Alonso >>> <josema.alonso@fundacionctic.org> wrote: >>>> We will have Richard Cyganiak (DERI, NUI Galway) as special guest >>>> to talk >>>> about dcat <http://vocab.deri.ie/dcat> and I'm sure this will >>>> foster >>>> discussion around the data catalogues topic. >>> >>> Jose, thanks very much for getting Richard in to talk about dcat >>> this >>> week.
