Welcome everyone to the W3C Provenance Incubator Group! As the group's chair, I want to thank you for agreeing to participate, and look forward to your contributions in this area. We were approved on September 22, and I have already heard from many of you as well as others about their intention to join. We have a very diverse set of participants, and there are others that are in the process of joining. If there are specific people that you believe would be good to have in the group, let me know or feel free to contact them directly. For those of you who have not had experience with W3C before, W3C has many very useful processes and tools to manage these distributed collaborations, and I will try to convey them to you as I learn them myself. We will use the mailing list public-xg-prov@w3.org for email communications. Note that all messages sent to this list will be posted publicly on the web, as well as our meeting minutes and other documents. Our first order of business is to set up a time to hold a weekly telecon. We will do this using a W3C tool for polling. Just fill the form that is posted at: http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/43897/WeeklyTconXGprovenanceForm/ This questionnaire is open for answers until 23:59, Boston time on 2009-10-13. Answers received after that time may not be counted. Since there are many participants from Europe and the US, I only proposed time slots that would be sensible across all the time zones. Hopefully we will find a time that works for most. Let me know if you have any questions for now. Yolanda Yolanda Gil http://www.isi.edu/~gil
