Dear All, (01)
The mini-series kicked-off wonderfully yesterday! We had a big and
enthusiastic crowd there. Thanks to all the great briefings and the
effort everyone has put in, we got a hugely successful first session
under our belts now. (02)
I'm writing to let everyone know that the full proceedings (abstract,
agenda, slides, in-session chat-transcript, audio recording, ...) are
now available online - see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2012_08_23 -
look under the "Archives" section. (03)
THANK YOU everyone! (04)
To keep us "visible" please consider posting/relaying this to
appropriate lists, websites, blogosphere and social-media. (05)
Regards. =ppy (06)
for and on behalf of the Session Co-chairs,
LeoObrst & KrishnaSinha (07)
p.s. ... onto preparation work for session-02 (which is less than two
weeks away) - attn: Gary & Naicong, kindly review the process outlined
earlier (ref.
http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/mini-series-org/2012-08/msg00026.html#nid04
) and let us have the pieces at your earliest. Tx. =ppy
