Hi folks,<\/p>\n
As some of you may know, I’ve been selected to be General Chair of OWLED 2014.<\/p>\n
Fun!<\/p>\n
It’s my very great pleasure to announce that Valentina Tamma<\/a> and Maria Keet<\/a> have agreed to be co-PC chairs. We’ll be sorting out the PC and CFPs shortly.<\/p>\n In all probability, we will be colocated with ISWC 2014 <\/a>(there are few more details to be ironed out).<\/p>\n A lot of OWLED this year will be familiar (submit papers\/come have fun!), but I also hope to get us back to our roots as an activist community which is effective in improving the state of OWL for all of us.<\/p>\n To that end, I’ve started organizing this community group a bit more (for example, I just rationalized the number of chairs to just me (qua general chair) and Pavel (qua rep of the steering committee); this will evolve) and plan to transition a lot of the normal OWLED infrastructure here. I also hope to get some traction on “reports” (e.g., specs for new features).<\/p>\n Also, we’ve an intention to fold the OWL Reasoner Evaluation Workshop<\/a> into OWLED. ORE was a great success last year, but we really want to connect reasoner evaluation to people’s lived experience of them. To that end, I think we as a community can make this into a useful way to improve the state of the art as well as reward hardworking reasoner developers.<\/p>\n I<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi folks, As some of you may know, I’ve been selected to be General Chair of OWLED 2014.
