Nicola & Stefano,    (01)

One suggestion ... (making a guess) some of those whom you may be
targeting could be gathering at Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA for the
OntologySummit2009 face-to-face workshop. Therefore, you might be able
to catch a few people there, without having to make an inordinately
long mail chain. We can revisit this when you have your list, when you
have your list ready.    (02)
