Vocabulary 'tutorial'?

Hello WG and IG compatriots --

(I am also cc'ing my Boeing colleagues,who are Vocabulary experts in our Technical Library. They met a couple weeks ago, with the IG Vocabulary Task Force.)

We talk about this and that vocabulary for the Social Web effort. I believe the Interest Group has a deliverable about vocabularies. But I, myself, am not totally clear on how this stuff works vis-à-vis vocabularies. Would someone be willing to give me (and anyone else who's interested) a small tutorial?

I'd really appreciate it, and would feel better equipped to understand what the IG needs to deliver on this point.

Thanks -- Ann
