16:17:05 thanks to wing for nice analysis 16:17:31 q+ 16:17:43 did we face classic problem: people who are interested, will participate in the survey? 16:17:45 need to tidy it up a bit, but you can get it at http://wingerz.com/semweb/sweo/survey/all.rdf 16:17:51 need to tidy it up a bit, but you can get it at http://wingerz.com/semweb/sweo/survey/all.n3 16:17:56 good to see people are interested in reasoning 16:18:00 whoops never mind on the n3 16:18:14 ok, it's there now 16:18:16 maybe good to mention these messages in the use cases proposed to industry 16:18:21 karen thanks wing 16:18:22 ack Karen 16:18:45 +q 16:18:51 a couple observations: not many surprises from survey; but good to have baseline 16:19:08 also good to see strengths, opportunities, weaknesses 16:19:13 (data was generated by babel, so it doesn't have a lot of structure) 16:19:20 karen wants to share findings internally... 16:19:30 wing: any kind of ontology associated with it? 16:19:41 nope, not yet 16:19:49 it was pretty quick and dirty 16:19:53 ack kidehen 16:20:03 kingsley - is the survey closed or continues? 16:20:24 susie says: survey closed on 26 Jan 16:20:47 susie says: other people were also doing some surveys -- maybe compare our findings with theirs? 16:20:54 Susie: links please re. other surveys etc.. 16:20:57 a summer school ? in austria 16:21:15 susie, some pointers are already on our info gathering wiki... 16:21:45 martind: http://www.semantics2006.net/semweb-awareness-barometer-an-online-survey-on-roll-out-application-and-training-needs-in.workshop.143.15.htm 16:21:54 we should probably finish with the survey for now, but we may reuse the questions on other customers, etc. 16:21:55 this might be the summer school 16:21:56 http://www.semantic-web.at/main.php 16:22:13 for info on Semantic Web School 16:22:38 should we reopen the survey or use it for different/complementary audience (discussion susie - kingsley) 16:22:59 q+ 16:23:23 Semantic Web School is not a summer school, they organize e.g. courses for industry 16:23:29 kingsley suggests addressing the point of most participants to such surveys are too close to SemWeb, maybe we need additional, more distant users? 16:23:43 +1 sharing more datasets over time 16:23:57 susie suggests these follow-ups handled by individual members/companies, and then perhaps sharing results with SWEO 16:24:06 ack captsolo_ 16:24:07 the awareness barometer order form is linked from http://www.semantic-web.at/10.12.66.literature.semantic-web-awareness-barometer-2006.htm 16:24:23 uldis asks question: follow up kingsley... 16:24:42 uldis: wants to ask questions locally in Ireland -- reusing existing SWEO survey 16:24:53 susie says, we're happy to reuse the questions 16:25:14 Susie: We want to reuse SWEO question for surveys that are not SWEO tagged, but we will happily share the data with SWEO via RDF (the point I was making) 16:25:31 Susie: Same as Uldis 16:25:57 Susie: Goal being to have many RDF Data Source of polling / survey data 16:26:03 what we don't notice with most other surveys is some form of publication 16:26:24 many people may be interested in seeing e.g. a paper summing up our survey? 16:26:48 should we write a doc as a W3C note or go for a journal? wing asked for opinion 16:26:57 I think it would be good to publish the results 16:26:58 Susie: Key points, we just want to officially seek permission to use the same questions in the surveys 16:27:10 Susie: rather than writing from scratch 16:27:19 ACTION: karen taps into W3C what they prefer 16:27:31 Karen check with Ivan,... 16:27:48 open next agendum 16:27:48 you can e.g, try to talk about the results at events such as the Semantics 2007 16:28:04 kjetil finishing descrition of community projects 16:28:13 there were a few submissions made already 16:28:26 kjetil says, the project was taken very well 16:28:59 kjetil, can you provide url here into irc minutes? 16:29:18 http://esw.w3.org/topic/SweoIG/TaskForces/CommunityProjects 16:29:30 susie says this is a good outcome, as it was only discussed at the last few telcos 16:29:33 +1 impressed with response to this also! 16:29:45 we already have 6 projects submitted, which is a good start 16:30:14 FAQ about community project: http://esw.w3.org/topic/CommunityProjectFaq 16:30:36 we have quite tough deadline for proposing new projects, people encouraged to respond quickly 16:30:43 open next agendum 16:30:56 alistair sent some initial input about BT use case 16:31:17 use case looks good, esp. to target more technical people interested in web services,... 16:31:40 alistair is interested in preparing less-techie description (e.g. for non-technical managers) 16:31:59 alistair is not available next week, but suggests doing this 'translation' for the week after 16:32:21 ACTION: alistair prepares non-techie summary of BT case for Feb 14th 16:32:50 susie suggests looking at survey again and see which orgs started some pilot projects 16:33:04 ...and then ask specific people to contribute a use case to SWEO? 16:33:25 open next agendum 16:33:35 ACTION: wing to send list of companies with pilot projects 16:33:37 f2f meeting -- feedback from 6 people 16:33:51 stavanger seems to be a suitable place 16:34:09 ivan communicates with local organizers, who may help out with aroom free of charge 16:34:38 we though about thursday/friday mtg, but they're offering other days -- 16:34:44 needs just clarification 16:35:03 ACTION: Susie to clarify room allocations/dates of f2f 16:36:29 Norway seems to be the right place 16:36:35 close this agendum 16:36:52 agenda+ conference and SWEO presence 16:37:01 open agendum 6 16:37:41 susie talks about the grid conf., organizers of grid web-inars series would like to get some presence from SemWeb people 16:38:02 people would go to London, get recorded as they deliver seminar and that's broadcast 16:38:39 people based near London may participate -- e.g. alistair (BT), martind (OU), others 16:39:06 e.g. paul walsh?
