Re: OntoLex f2f at LDK-2021?

Dear all,

just a follow-up clarification: Earlier today, I sent out emails on *two*  
possible meetings at LDK-2021. Both are interrelated on many levels  
(including both associated with [different subtasks of] the same task in  
Nexus Linguarum), but they actually refer to two different things:

- I would like to organize a half-day meeting on linguistic *annotation*  
on the web (with the W3C Community Group Linked Data for Language  
Technology), and asked for expressions of interest to organize such an  
event. This is primarily about getting to terms with the idea to bridge  
the technological gaps between Web Annotation, NIF and non-RDF data models  
for linguistic annotations on the web.

- I asked on the OntoLex mailing list whether there are any plans for a  
follow-up to the OntoLex face-to-face meeting we had at LDK-2019 (with the  
W3C Community Group Ontology-Lexica), which is about lexical resources and  
mostly about internal communication within the OntoLex CG. As much as I  
see a need for that one -- hence the suggestion --, I see myself in this  
case more as a contributor rather than as an organizer.

Apologies for not making the difference clearer. As for the responses, I  
will treat responses concerned with annotations in the context of LD4LT  
(and get back to you soon), even if sent as replies to this email.

Best,
Christian
