TPAC 2025 participation

Hi all,

This year's TPAC meeting was raised as an agenda point this week. TPAC is the annual W3C conference, and this year it will take place in November in Kobe, Japan. It offers an opportunity for face-to-face internal discussions, as well as engagement with other groups.

Crucially, the RDF WG has indicated that they will be attending.
If you have suggestions for other groups we might want to engage with, please share them with the group. The Dataset Exchange group has also been mentioned as a potential candidate, particularly due to their use of SHACL.

Could you let us know if you believe attending would be valuable, and whether you would be willing to participate yourself / in person?
You can also join remotely, though time zones might make it challenging.

ISWC is also happening in Japan the week before TPAC, for anyone who might be interested or looking for an extra reason to make the trip.

There is an initial deadline to express interest and make a reservation as a group by the end of this week, so please contact the chairs about this, preferably by Thursday the 19th.


Kind regards,
Eliana
