Although Interface and Interaction design typically pertain to the disciplinary domain of HCI, which can be considered a neighboring discipline to the semantic web, with this proposal we aim to bring the relevant aspects of HCI to address core technological, socio-technical and fundamental challenges for Semantic Web (and Web Science) research.

Note: Community Groups are proposed and run by the community. Although W3C hosts these
conversations, the groups do not necessarily represent the views of the W3C Membership or staff.
If you have any questions, please contact the group on their public list: public-swisig@w3.org. Learn more about the Semantic Web Interfaces Community Group.
to get more frequent updates for the group dashboard and thus for the community I invite everybody to share links to interesting projects, papers, blog post, … in the field of our community. I think we had enough to show!
At first, I want to share a link posted to this list last night. Jean-Claude explains in a tutorial like manner how to transform an OWL ontology to JSON-LD and then how to visualize it with D3.js. Maybe, it is a good starting point for everyone who has to create a JavaScript-based InfoVis of an ontology. And here we go! The demo is linked at the bottom of his post and here.
With reference to notes in our preliminary report (currently being drafted)

Please help to shape the vision and mission for the group by taking a very quick questionnaire.(less than 10 questions). This will help us with stakeholder profiling

This is only or internal use – Anonymized answers will be shared with participants
In addition to the usual norms for participatory governance and ethical conduct for online commnities, as of February 2014 we have established two participatory governance rules:
1. Taking the stakeholder survey is a necessary requirement to join this group. Members who joined before, should take the survey to maintain their membership. This is to ensure we have enough well intentioned and constructive contributors on board.
2. Members must commit to a minimum of one activity each semester of their choice in support of the group mission, and inform the group via a post to the list so that others can participate, and provide enough information. This is to ensure a minimum level of participation of all members and facilitate the record keeping of all activities.
Members who do not comply with the charter will be considered silent lurkers and their membership to the group may be reevaluated accordingly at some point.
Welcome to discuss on list any suggestion you may have in relation to vision, mission and charter.
If we manage to get all inputs before 15 December, we could aim to file the report before the end of the year. If however people need more time, then we should be able to extend
2. Let’s have a first virtual meeting to very briefly say hi and chat informally around the agenda items. People who cannot attend the virtual meeting, will be fully briefed and possibly access a recording of the same (if we manage)> Please express your preference of timeslot: when should we have our first virtual meeting?
Have chosen some random times/days the first week of December, if you want to suggest alternate slots let me know
http://doodle.com/67mdr6w4vs6kgrxh
and your preference of platform if you have any
Anymeeting.com? google hangouts? skype?
2. Pleaste take a look at this online form if you would like to suggest edits to the form please email me and I can invite you to co-edit, otherwise just fill it out before the virtual meeting takes place s that we have some basis for some discussion/decision making
RE. EDITING POSTS If you (like me) are logging in Chrome, you may have to click the grey shield icon at the right hand side of the browser box (where the url goes) then click ‘load anyway’ to view the text in this text editor (otherwise the text may not show)
RE. GOVERNANCE OF THIS COMMMUNITY We shall soon find a synchronous/asynchronous way of convening and organising ourselves
such as electing a chair, we may go for a rotating chair if people agree
(that means, EACH group member will be a chair fo a 2 months period or so (tba), unless
they have a very good reason to opt out) would that work?
The chair would just make sure the community agenda is followed up
All members would contribute to shaping the agenda and take on tasks
would that work?
Note: Til then, I am nominating myself temp chair to deal with list admin
