SSN-XG Meeting Minutes 20 July 2010

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who participated to the last telephone conference.
And two special thanks: 
- Krzysztof (Jano in the minutes) for the extra effort he did to prepare it,
- and to Andriy for scribing. 

In summary, we discussed only one point of the agenda, the alignment of the SSN ontology with DOLCE but it was a very lively and constructive discussion. 
We decided to deliver an "aligned ontology" and at the same time offer "simplified" versions (automatically derived from it) which could appeal to a larger range of users, especially to domain specialists focusing on sub-parts of the ontology. 

The minutes of the meeting are here: http://www.w3.org/2010/07/20-ssn-minutes.html (for the record, the attendees were: Luis, Krzysztof, Payam, Kevin, Andriy, Arthur, Michael and me).

Cheers
Laurent
