Duane, (01)
That looks real good. (02)
One concern I have, though, is that without fixing a date, people
can't even tell (themselves) if they could be available. Besides,
I can create a session page easier, if I have a date first.
Alternatively, we can create a "Ontology Application and Use
Case" and/or a "Ontology Application Implementation" page(s) and
work from that. (03)
The way you are cutting this submission deadline (11/30), it will
make the planning and advertising of a December session difficult. (04)
Therefore, if we are still planning this for Dec-2005, we should
just (arbitrarily) pick a date, and start from there. People can
then submit, saying they are submitting this for the Dec-2005
panel, or, alternatively, they can submit by saying they are
interested to present, but they are not available for Dec. and
could be considered for later discussions. (05)
I actually would suggest that we ONLY call for one session (the
Dec-2005 session) now, and go for "more sessions" through popular
demand, rather than committing ourselves to a "series" at the
word go. [This is only a suggestion ... I am not adamant about it
at all, I see pros and cons both ways.] (06)
... just some random thoughts. (07)
Cheers. =ppy
