...and thanks again for all the coordination work you and John had to do beyond the effort you put in the model 

Enjoy your well deserved (and completely offline ;-) ) holidays!

> Dear all,

>   before I summarize the results of today's final telco on the ontolex model,
> let me thank all of you who have been working so intensively on the model in
> the last few months. The model has converged to a model that we can all be
> happy with and proud of. Surely, there are many aspects of the model that
> could still be improved, but after close to four years of discussion it is
> definitely time to produce a first release, ... and then wait and see how the
> model evolves and develops further.
> 
> I am sure that each of one us has made compromises that they were not 100%
> convinced of. This is a side-effect of developing a model as a community
> process. It strives for broader agreement at the expense of making decisions
> that some people disagree on. To come to an end, compromises have to be
> made, however, and I think this is something we all had to learn as the work
> on the model progressed. Nevertheless, I think we can be satisfied with the
> outcome.
> 
> Today's telco has for example shown again that the class LexicalSense and it
> subclass OntoMap are still debatable.
> We had again debates on the properties definition, confidence etc.
> 
> All these debate are not new. The same arguments have been repeated
> today as those which have been put forth over the last years. This is a sign
> that we should simply stop discussions now and see how the model is
> actually used.
> 
> As John has advanced today, I see an opportunity to continue the ontolex
> work by including new modules: i) a module to model lexical semantics and
> semantic frames, ii) a module on morphology, etc. We will discuss this soon.
> There are also some initiatives to move the ontolex model to an ISO standard.
> I will keep you informed on this.
> 
> In August, John and myself will remove the last bugs in the specification,
> synchronize again the examples, ontology and the specification in the wiki.
> Then make sure that W3C hosts the files and finally announce the release of
> the model.
> 
> Thanks again for all your hard work, it will continue...
> 
> I am off for a three week holiday now, completely offline...
