[ppy] who are "we" ... and when was this established? (03)
If you are referring to OntologySummit2007, then I afraid the
statement is misconstrued ... I think it was repeated many times
during the summit proceedings that "we were not there to identify what
"is" or "is not" an ontology, or even to define "what is an ontology"
... we were only there to see how we could better understand
"ontology" and "ontology-related"/"ontology-like" artifacts. (04)
