Introduction

Hi!

My name is Chris Lowis, and I work at FutureLearn[1]. We're a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Open University in the UK, but partner with more than 70
institutions worldwide to deliver massive open online courses (MOOCs).

It's great to be invited to join the group.

I currently serve as an invited expert on the W3C Audio Working Group[2],
having previously co-chaired the group during my time at BBC R&D. I
represented the BBC on the Audio XG when it was founded. At the BBC I was
also involved in semantic-web projects including working with the
Programmes[3] and Music[4] ontologies.

Pleased to meet you all. It seems like a good place for me to start would
be to see if the proposed schema maps well to our current course catalogue
on FutureLearn, and to take a look over the Use Cases. Would that be
sensible?

All the best,

Chris
