Thanks to both of you

I think it would be fantastic if Michel Dumontier would be willing to co-chair the Community Group.  Michel did a great job chairing the Interest Group, and it would be great to have the continuity of his leadership in the Community Group.

To this end, I hereby nominate Michel Dumontier as co-chair.

Michel, I hope you're willing!

Thanks,
David Booth

   The W3C Semantic Web for Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group has made a great many contributions over its lifetime, which have had major impact on many research groups as well as government and industry partners. I'm proud to have had this opportunity to chair the group, but the field has matured and it is time for it to evolve to a W3C Community Group, which is broadly open for participation. Looking forward to seeing grass-roots initiatives, such as Richard Boyce's DDI model, and many others being discussed within the context of the community group.
   Warmest regards,

            David, I think it is great that you stepped forward to
            volunteer and am +1 on your becoming chair.

            A question I have is about our current effort to develop an
            interest group note for a minimum information model for
            potential drug-drug interactions
            (https://www.w3.org/wiki/HCLSIG/DDI
            <https://www.w3.org/wiki/HCLSIG/DDI>). We are pretty close
            to finalizing this document (see https://goo.gl/iWZxvq) but
            I am not sure if there is a such think that is similar to an
            interest group note available for a community group. Do you
            or anyone else on this list know?


        Yes it can:

                    I just received email from W3C informing me that the
                    HCLS Community
                    Group currently lacks a chair.  Apparently that
                    omission is holding up
                    the process of transferring ownership of the
                    previous HCLS *Interest*
                    Group (which has been out of charter for quite some
                    time) to the HCLS
                    *Community* Group.

                    Accordingly, I have now nominated myself for chair
                    of the HCLS
                    *Community* Group.  If anyone else would like to
                    propose themselves or
                    anyone else as chair instead or in addition, please
                    do so:
