Call for participation - OntoPortal Workshop 2022 (online) public track

(Sorry for multiple reception - thanks for transferring to domain specific communities)

The OntoPortal Alliance is pleased to announce the first edition of the OntoPortal Workshop in Montpellier, France September 26 to 29.

The OntoPortal Alliance <https://ontoportal.org/> is a consortium of research and infrastructure teams (and one SME) dedicated to promoting semantic and ontology services—in science and more—based on the open, collaboratively developed OntoPortal open source software <https://github.com/ontoportal>. Teams in the Alliance develop and maintain several openly accessible semantic resource repositories. This includes BioPortal <https://bioportal.bioontology.org/>, the primary and historical source of OntoPortal code, but also AgroPortal <http://agroportal.lirmm.fr/>, EcoPortal <http://ecoportal.lifewatchitaly.eu/>, MedPortal <http://medportal.bmicc.cn/> and MatPortal <https://matportal.org/>.

The 2022 workshop's main goal is to consolidate the OntoPortal Alliance organization and shared agenda. External parties that are interested in re-using and/or participating to the development of OntoPortal, or more generally interested in the management of ontologies and other types of semantic resources (terminologies, vocabularies, thesauri, etc.) are welcome to reach out to us for more information.

We are inviting members of the public to a public online track on Wednesday September 28th from 14h00 to 18h00 (CET) that will be composed of several sessions: 
14h-14h30: General presentation of OntoPortal (the software, the use cases, the repositories and their uses, etc.). 
14h30-16h: User panel with OntoPortal installations developers/maintainers and some of their representative users.
16h15-17h45: Open tutorial “Setting up your appliance” (for those who want condensed technical information on how to quickly deploy their own ontology repository). 
17h45-18h: Wrap up. 

Please register to the OntoPortal Workshop 2022 public session by filling the form: https://forms.gle/WnaR5p61duXELck38 <https://forms.gle/WnaR5p61duXELck38>
