They all sound interesting to members of our community. Our membership
ranges from people who knows this is going to be important and wants to
learn more, to e-business practitioners, e-business standards developers
and KR/ontology professionals. May I suggest that you try telling us
(given the range above, I know this may be difficult) about PSL, but
also devote a small portion of your presentation and give us your views
on the other two very interesting subjects (i.e. "the use of first-order
logic for ontology design" and "semantic integration".) (04)
Is that OK? If so, I'll look forward to the title of your talk and the
abstract soon. (05)
Thanks & regards,
PPY
