16:17:26 [RalphS]
scribenick: RalphS
16:17:36 [RalphS]
Daniel: I've talked with a couple of the groups I mentioned last meeting
16:18:02 [RalphS]
... it's a good opportunity; there interest in contributing to the development of a standard they can use to distribute their terminologies on the Web
16:18:11 [RalphS]
... they'd use SKOS if it meets all their needs
16:18:20 [RalphS]
... they're currently using OWL
16:18:50 [RalphS]
... how should we proceed to develop this use case?
16:19:16 [RalphS]
... the WG could give them a strawman and ask for feedback
16:19:26 [RalphS]
Tom: what is the current state of their terminology?
16:19:43 [RalphS]
Daniel: they are currently expressing their relationships in OWL
16:20:01 [RalphS]
... one group is using Protege frames but are planning to convert this to OWL
16:20:34 [RalphS]
Elisa: I have another similar opportunity; I have been asked by a group working on ISO 11179 to help them put this into OWL
16:20:51 [RalphS]
... they already have a lot of it in UML
16:21:02 [RalphS]
... and I have some tools to convert UML to OWL
16:21:26 [RalphS]
... because their work is evolving we may have the opportunity to impact it
16:21:32 [RalphS]
... Bruce Bargmeyer is my contact
16:22:32 [RalphS]
Tom: ISO 11179 is pretty big; it has 6 parts
16:22:45 [RalphS]
Elisa: parts 2 and 3 are relevant, part 3 is what I think is the focus
16:23:01 [RalphS]
Tom: this is a very interesting opportunity
16:23:35 [RalphS]
Daniel: this is connected to National Cancer Institute work and is a huge opportunity
16:24:18 [RalphS]
Elisa: see XMDR www.xmdr.org and look at latest UML and OWL versions
16:24:21 [cgi-irc]
cgi-irc has joined #swd
16:24:39 [RalphS]
... though a bit out of sync with the document text
16:24:46 [RalphS]
... they've recently sent me XMI stuff
16:25:04 [TomB]
http://hpcrd.lbl.gov/SDM/XMDR/overview.html
16:25:10 [RalphS]
-> http://www.xmdr.org/ eXtended MetaData Registry Project
16:25:25 [RalphS]
Daniel: how much technical expertise is needed?
16:25:39 [RalphS]
Elisa: XMI is an XML serialiaztion of MOF, a subset of UML
16:26:05 [RalphS]
... they've sent me both OWL and XMI; the OWL is OWL-lite
16:26:58 [RalphS]
... also, Frank Olken is now at NSF; he was also involved in 11179
16:27:13 [TomB]
zakim, ack RalphS
16:27:13 [Zakim]
I see no one on the speaker queue
16:27:32 [dlrubin]
Link to ISO/IEC 11179: http://metadata-standards.org/11179/
16:29:08 [TomB]
RalphS: concern we might set too-high expectations re: SWD working group and 11179
16:30:26 [TomB]
Daniel: We use the use cases to drive evolution of SKOS - make sure it supports needs of other communities. Interest in 11179: is there stuff in there that should influence the evolution of SKOS?
16:30:36 [RalphS]
scribenick: tomB
16:31:20 [TomB]
...CABig - NCI Cancer Bioinformatics Grid - metadata for clinical trials uses 11179 for terminologies for data-capture purposes. Interoperability with SKOS would be great.
16:31:36 [TomB]
...Have ISO 11179 map to SKOS - make sure SKOS is compatible.
16:31:41 [dlrubin]
scribnick: Daniel
16:32:02 [TomB]
Elisa: Any review on SKOS compatibility would be very helpful - even informal.
16:32:13 [dlrubin]
Elisa: any help in making skos compatible with iso 11179 would be good
16:32:44 [dlrubin]
action: Elisa to keep us posted as SKOS/iso 11179 compatibility issue evolves
16:32:56 [dlrubin]
Ralph: there is already a working draft of skos
16:33:16 [TomB]
RalphS: Looking for Alistair informal presentation earlier this year...
16:33:23 [dlrubin]
...we should consider that to be the strawman
16:33:25 [TomB]
...our task is to finish the SKOS WD...
16:33:32 [TomB]
...based on feedback from 11179 and others...
16:34:27 [dlrubin]
...the reason to to skos work in this WG, it's important to have OWL expertise involved
16:34:41 [dlrubin]
...it could appear that OWL and SKOS are trying to represent similar types of relationships
16:35:10 [dlrubin]
...we want to make sure there is enough expertise to understand what OWL subclassing and SKOS broader/narrower is doing
16:35:29 [dlrubin]
...people familar with OWL would be good to be involved in setting skos reqirements
16:35:53 [dlrubin]
Elisa: we are still a smal group. Will there be more OWL best practices people
16:36:04 [dlrubin]
Ralph: not necessarily. We have 15 people in the WG
16:36:28 [dlrubin]
...Mike is interested
16:36:35 [dlrubin]
...we may persuade him to stay involved
16:36:46 [dlrubin]
Elisa: Deb has been travelling a lot...
16:37:01 [dlrubin]
...conf call conflict with rif call
16:37:28 [dlrubin]
...there are many people in Best Practices in the rif group
16:38:29 [dlrubin]
Ralph: probably can't move the call later
16:38:38 [TomB]
Elisa: Conflict with RIF call - SWD could potentially have more participants involved in RIF.
16:38:55 [dlrubin]
Action: Tom to discuss with Juus
16:39:02 [RalphS]
scribenick: dlrubin
16:39:20 [TomB]

16:39:44 [dlrubin]
Daniel: any day except Tues, preferably after 7am Pacific
16:39:59 [RalphS]

16:40:00 [ryager]
