RE: SSN-XG Meeting Minutes 15-July-2009

Dave,

There is a "baseline"  - see
http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/ssn/wiki/Main_Page#The_proposed_initial_version_of_the_Semantic_Sensor_Network_Ontology

 For an extensive review of alternatives see http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/ssn/wiki/SSN_Key_Ontologies_Reference_List

The open licence is a good idea (actually, I'm not sure we have any choice given the W3C relationship -- but someone might correct me). Personally, I'd rather see the sourceforge or similar distribution later  on -- around the time of the end of the incubator group -- we have a good, diverse, and active
team already within this group for development.

Hi All,

I'm new to the group (today was my second meeting).  I would be interested to learn if anyone has draft use cases that are driving the Sensor/Observation ontology/ontologies.  If so, can they be shared?

Also, I like the idea presented in today's meeting regarding posting the ontology to a popular forum such as sourceforge.net using an open license (e.g. Apache/BSD variant) once a suitable baseline is available.  Hopefully this approach would promote increased exposure for both adoption and refinement.
