Susie:Started by discussing progress since Nov.
2006 F2F
... progress in regards to Charter
... Outreach and Education actions
... wonder how we can do more education; talking to universities perhaps
... Susie to speak with Nigel Shadbolt; spoke with Ian [?], thought it would
be tricky
... may not be an easy model to do with universities
... Ivan will also contact some people for ideas
... another area in charter is organizing CIO-CTO type meetings
... thinking it would be difficult to outreach to companies on our own
... hard to access these people
... maybe outreach one level lower, those who may be more accessible than
CTO-CIO
... we also talked about working with analysts on a meeting
... for example, Gartner collaboration
... or others like IDC or Forrester
<scribe> ACTION: Karen to investigate analyst relations [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/05/02-sweo-minutes.html#action01]
Susie: would like to see more materials before we do outreach to new audiences
... We also talked about community projects at F2F
... decided to list the community projects on SWEO IG main page,
not just on wiki
scribe: Kjetikl and Ivan to do
Kjetilk: I have started but not done yet
... I'll write blog post, status
... not sure how much to include
Susie: description of community projects should
be brief; 2-3 sentences
... provide context in our world; also talked about use cases, working on SW
brochure
... logo discussion for all of SW standards
... small but productive group in Norway
... second agenda item, Community Project
<scribe> ACTION: Kjetilk to do outreach [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/05/02-sweo-minutes.html#action02]
Kjetilk: no further updates
Ivan: I actively solicited use cases
<kjetilk> Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation
Ivan: NRK, big Norwegian TV company has a huge
archive of digitized material
... presentation at conference; they said they would provide use case
... some others I am following up with
... in Boston I met June Kinoshita from Alzheimer's Research Forum
... she may provide use case as well
... FAO Susie will review
... Siemens, and Renault
Kjetil: possible use case
Ivan: also from Computas
Susie: I have action item to review use cases
and to email companies to establish new contacts
... I saw Giles Day from Pfizer on Monday
Susie: asked about use case from Pfizer
Susie: company is reorganizing; he probably
cannot provide right now because he is so busy
... Ted Slater in Ann Arbor may be helpful from Pfizer
... may have more time than Giles
... I'll contact Sun; recent Business Week article referenced Kodak
<scribe> ACTION: Karen to send Susie Kodak contact person [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/05/02-sweo-minutes.html#action03]
Susie: Chen is working on Chinese medicine
portal; I'll follow up with him and
... also Nokia for a case study
... also Audi, GM, and Ford
... Mary Tomale from McDonald Bradley doing defense work
Ivan: What I hope is after we publish first batch, we'll hear from more companies
Susie: Yes, first round should help attract more
<Melli> Susie, the Pfizer project from UK is going well, and we might be able to get a use case from them.
Susie: options for logos for Semantic Web; we
won't discuss because bengee cannot make call today; please look at logos for
next time

Paula: new version on wiki
... I incorporated updates based on F2F meeting; please everyone look and
give feedback
... made quite a few changes

version
... and send/email URL out to list
<scribe> ACTION: Paula will send email and explain changes [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/05/02-sweo-minutes.html#action05]
Susie: Two sections to SWEO wiki, public and
private
... can you post to both?
Paula: I can, but thought we would only make final version public
Susie: it's ok to post much like the FAQ
<scribe> ACTION: Paula to move to public wiki [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2007/05/02-sweo-minutes.html#action06]
Susie: Exciting that we finished the FAQ
... and Ivan arranged to publish it on W3C home page
Karen: also referencing it for outreach
Susie: Wing mentioned his presentation to SiCOP
went well
... a US government organization
... he had to do it remotely, so hard to gauge audience reaction
Wing: Not sure, but it was straight forward; one question about Cambridge SW gathering
<kidehen> wing: url for slide deck?
Susie: Likes Wing's presentation and suggests
pointer
... SW gathering held last night
... Kingsley did nice job hosting
... many extra people from BioIT World attendees
... we had promoted it and can do more outreach to them
... Feedback on SW gatherings; suggest that formats vary
... networking, 2-3 demos, then R&D pub is format
... maybe do a special gathering one month; or a demo focus another meeting;
or panel
<kidehen> Susie: +1
Susie: invites comments on these ideas
Karen: mentions inquiries from BioIT about other SW gatherings in other cities
Susie: SB Forum meetings quarterly, have
experts
... next meeting coincides with Semantic Technologies conference
... Susie and Eric Miller on panel, Google, and Booz Allen Hamilton
... panel being moderated by Jeff Pollack, Oracle
<Melli> I have a comment
Susie: Bengee and Leo may have participated in
Web Mondays in Germany
... nice to start a gathering in China
Kingsley: I have a to do item
... SW Web gatherings; what's happening in Banff?

Susie: SB Forum already does this in Bay
area
