Duane,
Sure, let me suggest a topic: Adobe tool support for semantic modeling in the user interface.
At Project10X, we've been focusing on the application of semantic technology and knowledge modeling in the design of intelligent user interfaces, mobile adaptive UIs, and 3D immersive environments driven by semantic agents. The issue we'd like to discuss with Adobe is the need for semantic functionality in the Creative Suite (and other parts of the product line). Adobe products for designers have many great features for developing and editing visual objects, and for modeling human-computer interactions. However, there no capabilities for dealing with these object structures semantically. Adding simple "concept palette" (e.g., allowing visual objects to "snap-to-concept") would be a place to start. Just to be clear, we are not talking about visual tools for modeling ontologies along the lines of CMaps, but rather about ways of enabling designers to semantically-enable their rich visual and interaction designs for UI/user experience from semantic models. We'd love to discuss this topic with you and some people from Adobe Labs.

Is anyone on this list going to the Adobe MAX 2007 event in Chicago this Sept 30 to Oct 4? If so, is there any interest in securing a room for a day/several hours to have an working peer session on Ontology related subjects? There are a few people going who might also be interested in getting together.
