Charles, Did you ever pull together a listing of knowledge resources as discussed in this e-mail? If you can point me to any such listing, I would be most grateful. Regards, Michael Denny -----Original Message----- From: owner-protege-discussion@crg-gw.Stanford.EDU [mailto:owner-protege-discussion@crg-gw.Stanford.EDU]On Behalf Of Charles McCathieNevile Sent: Saturday, March 30, 2002 9:33 PM To: Leo Obrst Cc: SUO; semantic web; W3C Web Ontology WG; RDF; protege-discussion Subject: Re: REQUEST: survey of available ontologies, taxonomies, thesauri, lexicons? To What extent would you consider an XML schema as an ontology? Some of them are fairly vague - XHTML, or SVG, are representing fairly broad areas of information without a lot of detail, but MathML and ChemML (and many other examples) are fairly detailed ontologies, as I understand it.

I'd like to be as complete as possible. If you are aware of any, please forward a reference to me. I am interested in the following format (if you also know the knowledge representation language/standard format(s) of the content, please provide that too): Knowledge resource name; Type/kind; Approximate domain; URL; Point-of-contact (and email address); Availability: for free or purchase and whether licensing is required; KR language/standard representation format(s) Example: ------- Knowledge resource name; Type/kind; Approximate fdomain; URL; Point-of-contact (and email address); Availability: for free or purchase and whether licensing is required; KR language/standard representation format(s) SUMO; ontology; upper ontology; http://ontology.teknowledge.com/; Ian Niles (iniles@tecknowledge.com) or Adam Pease (apease@teknowledge.com); free; KIF, Protege, DAML I will compile these into a table and provide the summary to all the above distribution lists. Also, if you know of other appropriate distribution lists that this request should be forwarded to, please let me know. If a similar request has been asked in your distribution list recently, please let me know too (with a citation), and I apologize now for not seeing it. Thanks for any information you can provide. Best, Leo PS. By the way, would anyone be interested in creating a general public repository of such knowledge sources? Or perhaps there already is such, and I am just unaware of it? -- Charles McCathieNevile http://www.w3.org/People/Charles phone: +61 409 134 136 W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI fax: +33 4 92 38 78 22 Location: 21 Mitchell street FOOTSCRAY Vic 3011, Australia (or W3C INRIA, Route des Lucioles, BP 93, 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to majordomo@smi.stanford.edu with "unsubscribe protege-discussion" in the message body (no quotes).
