<trackbot> Date: 11 February 2010
<scribe> scribenick: mhausenblas

in the governmental area
Michael: Post-doc at DERI, coordinator of http://linkeddata.deri.ie/
hg: researcher at Southampton,
created RKB explorer, responsible for sameas.org
... lots of co-reference stuff, actually
<hg> http://sameas.org/ http://rkbexplorer.com/
Brand: worked with Corey, at US
environmental protection agency
... background with spreadsheets, interest in LD
... working on FOSS Web spreadsheet tool
hg: Michael and I are interested in LD metadata, see http://semanticweb.org/wiki/VoiD

<Cory> In the future meetings will be at 10am
<Cory> Brand Neiman
Cory: collect resources regarding LD in eGov on the Web
Michael: we could use http://linkeddata.deri.ie/node/72 as an input
Cory: gather success stories
<hg> http://www.w3.org/2007/eGov/IG/wiki/Linked_Data
<hg> is that it?
Cory: let's start collecting references first, yes
hg: should we also consider collecting resources concerning the issues?
Cory: sort of a catalogue of catalogues
hg: bit frustrating personally
speaking is that the dissemination channels are not fully
available/supported
... for example to go out and hold seminars, etc.
Cory: looks like that most of the UK stuff is not that well known outside the inner circle
Michael: agree, but what shall we
do, concretely?
... shall we also do lobbying?
Cory: sandro is unfortunately not here, but maybe W3C can help with that, yes - sort of organising a F2F
<scribe> ACTION: Cory to ask sandro re lobbying efforts (F2F, etc.) within W3C [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/02/11-egov-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-98 - Ask sandro re lobbying efforts (F2F, etc.) within W3C [on Cory Casanave - due 2010-02-18].
Cory: shall we maintain a tools list
Michael:
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/Main_Page
Michael: my 2c is, no, let's not redo it ...
hg: we should encourage people to contribute
Michael: re datasets let's use a more or less automated approach based on voiD etc.
hg: also in the UK, automated approaches are dominating
+1
Cory: re cataloguing, what would people like to see?
hg: re technologies (as well) -
the practical limitations of gov agency, one should always
think of that there is a workflow in the background
... outreach should tackle these issues around the process as
well
Cory: makes sense
<Cory> Practical difficulties in opening data - political and technical
<Cory> Core will do a summary "mission statement"
<scribe> ACTION: Cory to propose a mission statement for our project [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/02/11-egov-minutes.html#action02]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-99 - Propose a mission statement for our project [on Cory Casanave - due 2010-02-18].
hg: I didn't mean to refer to
"political" issues but rather to social interaction
... agency-internally dynamics
... ensure that it is satisfactory, how to identify benefits
towards citizens, etc
... we need to understand the business process,
really
<scribe> ACTION: Hugh to draft a paragraph regarding gov agency business process and its implications on our outreach work [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/02/11-egov-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Sorry, amibiguous username (more than one match) - Hugh

<scribe> ACTION: mhausenb to draft demos for outreach [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/02/11-egov-minutes.html#action06]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-101 - Draft demos for outreach [on Michael Hausenblas - due 2010-02-18].
Cory: shall we merge tech and outreach or keep separate?
<Cory> Proposal - combine projects into "outreach" project
Michael: focus on outreach, IMO
hg: we should reuse others work (re catalogues of catalogues and datasets)
Cory: we should start with the executive primer
hg: ok to wait till we have more people on board
