Thank you for your message, Mike. (01)
It would be wonderful to collaborate with you at some point. (02)
We (the [ontolog-forum] community) are colocating our first
face-to-face meeting with the UBL people in San Francisco in November
(Nov. 5~7, 2003), if you have plans to be at the UBL TC meeting then,
it would be wonderful for you to come by, give a talk, and exchange
ideas on pertinent issues. (03)
In case you weren't aware, our distributed work is carried on mainly
over our forum (archived at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontolog-forum/) and our wiki (see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/wiki/). (04)
Would be great if you could join us (even as an observer) in the
endeavor. I'm certain you will be in a position to make great
contribution to the work we are embarking on; and will find the work
product from this community useful, as the world migrates from
traditional EDI to the future of the semantic web. (05)
Best regards,
PPY
