[ontolog-forum] ONTOLOG forum podcast (beta)

[Michael Maximilien <maxim@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Due to various constraints (overlapping
meetings and customer visits) I have been missing the recent forum meetings
so on the plane from Boulder I thought about creating a podcast (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcast
) for  the forum.

So I am announcing the availability
of the podcast as beta to get your feedback and also because
I have not added all of the episodes posted on the Wiki yet.   

I am assuming also that WE as a community
are OK with adding a podcast of the ONTOLOG forum in addition to the Wiki.
 If you disagree then please let me know ASAP.

See => http://maximilien.org/podcasts/ontolog-forum/ontolog-podcast.xml

Open the URL in iTunes from Podcasts
section (or other podcast media player) et voilas!

So now I can manage my missed episodes,
view summary and other info, and importantly download to my iPod for listening
on the plane rides :-)

-----------------------
Few things I am considering and TODOs
(me and you):

1) I posted the podcast XML on my Web
site (ONLY temporarily).  I need access to the ONTOLOG server to post
it there instead.  So Peter or anyone who has access please call me
or send to me privately.  I am OK also to send you the XML and you
post it.

2) I took great time to cut and paste
and edit the contents, details, and semantics for the current episodes
from the Wiki but I may have some mistakes/typos.  Please let me know.

3) Once we post to the ONTOLOG server
then I will publish (unless the community disagrees) the podcast in iTunes
and Yahoo! Podcasts for easy search and subscription.

4) Test in various players and podcast
managers.  I am using iTunes on a Mac.

5) If there is an image for the ONTOLOG
forum community I can add that so it displays in the podcast managers (i.e.,
iTunes)

6) Anything else...

-----------------------

Any feedback is appreciated.  If
you want to help add the remaining episodes or suggestions then reply to
this or contact me.  

Take care,
