Re: Explanations and Proof-Language Meeting, Follow-Up

thanks also for your participation.
In addition to the list below, i think there is one thing we would like 
to do to facilitate your usage:
(I number it 6 as an extension to sandro's list below).
6. extend the portable proof specification so that there is a uri for 
premises.  (we can run a proposal by whomever is appropriate - from the 
phone conversation that sound like it may be tim, sandro, and jos)

Also, as asides as a result of comments today we will add:
 - a summary listing of sources used in a proof (in addition to the 
summary listing of the ground axioms used)

a few comments below:

we would like to facilitate publishing through inference web.  if there 
is some resistance to this, we would like to understand so that we can 
update iw to meet your needs.

we have users who need the expressive power of kif.  if you can live 
with less power (and we understand your language) , we can take 
registrations in a less expressive language (and internally translate to 
kif).

this may need a dialog as well.  we are happy to discuss and adapt if 
useful.

we are eager to collaborate so we would like to help.  we will need a 
partner from your side of course so whenever you understand your 
resource situation, please contact us.
