Most of the EC meeting has been dedicated to the discussion of the 
International Outreach Subcommittee Plans. The EC finished the analysis of the 
general goals and approved the document with some changes that will be 
implemented soon.    (010)

IAOA Summer school: the EC was updated on the decisions taken so far and how 
the school is organized. As previously planned, the Education committee will 
distribute in November a first announcement of the school.    (011)

The EC has approved the participation of R. Mizoguchi as invited speaker, 
representing IAOA, at the 6th Australasian Ontology Workshop.    (012)

An updated version of the IAOA leaflet can be downloaded at: 
http://iaoa.org/downloads/Announcement%20IAOA.pdf
The EC asks the IAOA members and followers to help distribute copies of the 
leaflet at conferences and other events.    (013)

The EC has discussed the draft of the Bylaws on Committees and SIGs. The 
discussion has brought up some issues that require the draft to be revised. It 
is expected that an official version will be ready at next EC meeting.
The discussion of the rest of the Bylaws will start at next meeting as well.    (014)

The EC has decided that the list of current IAOA members will be made available 
to all IAOA members via a link in the password-protected "Members' Area" of our 
website. For now, this listing will only include name, affiliation, country 
(not the address), email and membership type. We are planning to clearly state 
on the member application form that (except for private personal information of 
detailed address, date of birth and place of birth) we will be sharing all 
member information returned on the membership application form (including 
responses to the survey) among the membership, and then share all that starting 
from Jan-2011.
Members that have reasons to object to this decision should write to: 
info@xxxxxxxx within the next 7 days.    (015)

IAOA Outreach Program/Activity:
- 6th Australasian Ontology Workshop (AOW 2010), 7 Dec. 2010 (Adelaide, 
Australia) - [IAOA champion: Markus Stumptner; EC-Liaison: R. Mizoguchi    (016)
