    Date: Thursday June 5;

    Agenda: 
     
    1. Housekeeping 
        Phone bridge moderator code to SIG co-chairs 
        Andrea stepping down as Co-chair 
     
    2. Next steps for the SIG  
        Listing on the IAOA Special Interest Group web page 
            http://iaoa.org/iaoaSIG/iaoaSIG.html  
        Creation of a dedicated SIG page  
            Initial draft done: see http://iaoa.org/swao/ 
            make sure that the IAOA and wiki page cross-reference each
    other 
        Solicitation for members 
            Someone with access to the list members (LeoObrst or
    FrankLoebe) to help define the current members 
            New members to have a wiki page providing their background
    and present a quick (1 min) overview of their work and interests on
    a call  
     
    3. Discussion on creating an introductory online/training tutorial  
        Introductory sections for non-technical audiences and to set the
    stage 
        Subsequent sections building on the introduction to go more
    in-depth and perhaps with exercises 
        Work in conjunction with the IAOA Education Committee 
        MarkFox working on a "gentle introduction to ontologies" and
    will forward to the SIG 
        This would be a starting point, but would need SIG consensus 
     
    4. Discussion on an issue of the Journal of Applied Ontology related
    to reuse and lessons learned  
        Extending and discussing the work of this year's Ontology Summit 
     
    5. Brainstorm and share information about people and projects
    relevant to this SIG and reach out them to make them aware of our
    existence and maybe invite them for a talk or an informal chat 
        Establish knowledge base and list of knowledgeable individuals,
    and understand current work, projects and interests 
     
    6. Next Meeting 
        interest in having 2 meetings per month:  
            1 meeting for event-related logistics and management,  
            another for topics of research and project-related
    discussions (promote ontology practices and development) 
     
    Note that our monthly meetings are normally on the first Monday of
    every month, at 10am Eastern Time. 
     
    Please see the SIG wiki page for dial-in details.  
     
    Best regards,
