The EC has confirmed the agreement with InfoTerm as a way to support
mechanisms by which members of our community can be more active in
standardization initiatives.    (09)

The EC has widened the discussion from standardization mechanisms to
standardization activities. The main issue is whether the IAOA itself should
have an active role in standardization initiatives, perhaps in terms of
explicit support of a standard. As an outcome of this discussion, the EC
will start a standardization coordination Committee which will investigate
the issue and make a proposal to the EC.    (010)

The EC confirms the plan to have three more SIGs on biomedicine,
architecture and geographical data.    (011)

The rest of this meeting was devoted to the organization and preparation of
the Ontolog Forum Session dedicated to IAOA (Thursday, 26 May 2011)    (012)

The following workshop has been approved as IAOA supported event:
- Shapes 1.0 The Shape of Things held at CONTEXT 2011
