This paper is a gold mine! It contains references to at the very least, and
probably contributions from many of our ontolog friends including Dagobert and
Chris Welty who spoke last week. It addresses the main issues we face with
ontologies and controlled vocabularies citing many standards. Such issues
include: Ontologies as indexing language, Ontology correlation, Ontology
presentation, Ontologies for schema integration, Formats, and Standards. (01)

The Digital Curation Centre in January added a chapter on ontologies: (04)
DCC Digital Curation Manual Instalment on "Ontologies" by Martin Doerr
http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resource/curation-manual/chapters/ontologies/ (05)
It provides some interesting links from the libraries and curation view
of the world onto ontologies, including some suggestions on moving from
current indexing systems and thesauri to ontologies. One comment worth
quoting: (06)
"Do not try to hide your ontology or to make money out of it. "Widely
used ontology has value. Any obstacle to its take-up reduces your other
returns from the investment." (07)
