Frank (et. al):

Thanks for the comments.  The Luc Moreau, Paul Groth, and the other experts have sure been at hard work getting things formed and nearly finished... and I've contributed where possible given the high-level of experts in the team.

Enclosed please find the presentation.  I'd be more than glad to try to help out in drafting the use-cases.  Also, please do not redistribute this presentation to email lists that can be searched (are public).  The presentation is supposed to be part of Sem Tech and the conference doesn't like the presentations floating around the internet.

Best.

I attended an excellent presentation yesterday at SemTech2012 in San Francisco on "Benefits and Applications of W3C's Provenance Standards in Enterprise Semantic Web Applications" presented by Reza B'Far who was also active in our early discussion in the forming of the BG.

Reza gave a brief overview of the current work going on by W3C's Provenance Working Group and focused on why enterprise applications should implement it, some of the architectural benefits the standard offers, and how enterprise customers will benefit from its implementation.  I mentioned to him that Scott Hills and Roger Cutler are in the process of drafting a use case for the BG around provenance and that it would be great if he/Oracle would join us and collaborate on the effort.

Reza, it would be great if you can send us the presentation deck.

Thanks,
Frank
