Dear Colleagues,
IAOA is pleased to have been one of the co-organizers of Ontology Summit 2010, the annual event that has just come to a successful conclusion. Revolving around the theme of "Creating the Ontologists of the Future," this year's Ontology Summit conveners have spent more than 3 months delving into the various aspects on the educate and train ontologists. They surveyed the present and future landscape of the field, what employers of ontologists need or are looking for, discussed what skills and knowledge ontologists should have, and synthesized them into a set of recommendations. That work culminated in the "Ontology Summit 2010 Communique" which can be found at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2010_Communique
We want to draw your attention to this document, request that you review it, and send us your endorsement* if you support the spirit and content of this Communique. (* this endorsement will be made by you as an individual, not as a representative of your organization.)
The collection of endorsements is closing by this Friday 16-April-2010; so, please support by replying to this message with your name (in case it is not obvious from your email address) and the statement that you confirm your endorsement of the "OntologySummit2010 Communique" now, if you haven't already had a chance to do it earlier.
Sincerely yours,
Nicola Guarino President, IAOA Member, OntologySummit2010 Organizing Committee
