[ppy] Yes. See: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?WikiHomePage#nidK (02)
That said, we should be careful NOT to duplicate existing effort ...
whether it's within Ontolog, or outside. ... I would be surprised if
some serious effort ref. the latter doesn't already exist. (03)
Within Ontolog, too, we already have an "Ontologizing Ontolog"
initiative - see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologizingOntolog
... within which there is the TaxoThesaurus Project which BobSmith &
DeniseBedford are championing - see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologTaxoThesaurus (04)
In fact, that team is doing a project review and update this Thursday
(see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2007_06_21
) after their break. (05)
Paola, you might consider joining the call to see if there is a need
for a deparate effort. (06)
Regards. =ppy
