All, (01)
The session page for this Thursday's session is now up. (02)
See: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2008_01_17 (03)
Please feel free to edit -- modify, add information, add resources,
etc. as you see fit.
You may send me your edits too. (04)
Again: please make sure I can have your slides by noon tomorrow
(Jan-16), or let me know if you need some additional time for us (so
that I can schedule around that.) (05)
Looking forward to another great OKMDS session ... (06)
Thanks & regards. =ppy
