This is a wonderful proposition. (02)
Thanks, Don, for branching this into a more appropriate subject (along
this line, I am even making this into a new thread.) (03)
To all who are interested to pursue this, feel free to start the
discussion on this thread, for now. If it gets busy, I can set up a
separate mailing list, to separate the "business ontology" discussion
from the "ontology business" discussion. :-) (04)
Also, be aware that we all have the wiki
(http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?HomePage#nid04) and the
file-sharing space (see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ToolsCollaboration#nid024) at
our disposal too. Make use of them. (05)
Regards. -ppy

That's very significant about the plain-English grammar project --Thanks,
Adrian. (08)
It's also a significant fact that a changeover will require use adoption. (09)
The adoption of natural language as a computational aid seems to be
the Holy Grail of computational purists that regard the quality of a
human/machine interface. No doubt a natural symbolic visual interface
would be another difficult study. (010)
Civic events and their political interstitial communications seem to
have a ready market-gap afforded toward group-aware
grammatical-interconnected-live-community. (011)
Them and the military, too. (012)
Have any a desire to form a focus group to investigate a municipal
project opportunity? (013)
And... I have another marketing question... (014)
Can any science survive a startup phase if that fledgling science
courts civil respect and military respect at the same time? Can a
business plan successfully span the love/power separation? (015)
So, to plan a project that is scaled to be multiplied as a proven,
successful market package to the other 3200 American counties in
desperate need of similar community heartbeat seems to entail an
inevitable requirement of Federal considerations. (016)
However, and the point of my question, can a successful plan be
started up across the divide of top interests, and find a politically
correct harbor to survive a corporate opportunity? (017)
Can a business plan be made that courts both civil and military? Or is
this plan-suicide? (018)
Warm regards,

You wrote.... FWIW, my take is that topic maps are yet another syntax
specification, lacking any logical semantics. So OWL, KIF or any other
logical language is appropriate for capturing semantics (meaning), while
topic maps are not. One can convert syntax and labels from one to the
other, but semantics will be lost. (022)
You may be interested in the "Semantic Web Presentation" at
www.reengineeringllc.com . It argues that there is yet another dimension
to "semantics" -- namely that it's going to be necessary to use plain
English computationally on top of whatever logical language is chosen. (023)
The examples in the presentation can be run (and changed) by pointing a
browser to the same site. (024)
Hope this is of interest. Cheers, -- Adrian (025)
