Thank you, dalia.    (01)

Yes, doing (what is numbered now) 4 before 3 would make a lot of sense.    (02)

By the way, I did have an offline request from NaicongLi to keep
Session-2 on Thu 2012_09_06    (03)

Based on the above (and barring further tweaks) ... we now have:    (04)

1. Value propositions (needs, criteria, use case scenarios, benefits, etc.)
2. Existing successful applications (perhaps as a case studies) -
including: Spatial Decision Support, ... (offers/suggestions
solicited)
3. Methodologies: including, what *is* semantics, image approaches, etc.
4. Review of the field of ontologies for earth science (and existing ontologies)
5. Tutorials    (05)

I have updated the wiki page accordingly too.
see under: 
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?EarthScienceOntolog/GettingOrganized#nid3DB8    (06)

Note also the update by Naicong (on the wiki) that we now have Gary
Berg-Cross and  Naicong Li co-chairing session-2.    (07)


ALL - actions:    (08)

1.  please adopt your session (I am assuming that each and every
member of this organizing committee will be taking on some
championship role.)    (09)

2.  please suggest speakers (including yourselves) with
name/title/abstract of presentation. We can compile a list of those
and start fitting them into the appropriate session(s).    (010)


Thanks & regards. =ppy
