Dear all,    (05)

I think another source for input concerning the ontology terminology, in 
particular the more technical vocabulary, would be the ongoing standardisation 
initiatives, and this should probably be co-ordinated with the standards SIG.    (06)

We probably should have representatives being involved from the main 
communities, i.e. at least OWL (stable terminology), Common Logic (revision 
coming up), and DOL (OntoIOP.org, currently under development), and maybe 
others.    (07)

I discussed this previously with Fabian, and I think this could also be an 
opportunity for the ontology terminology subcommittee to have real impact on 
the shape of the standards currently under development, and it could also be a 
chance to harmonise e.g. the CL and DOL terminology, where possible.    (08)

Best, Oliver    (09)
