Duane,

   The OOR is intended to maintain or reference *all* ontologies for which there is some volunteer willing to at least provide the metadata, and preferably do more to make it available and comprehensible.  The absence of a mention thus far of any particular ontology means nothing, no comprehensive list has yet been created.   The SUMO would definitely be a valuable addition, as well as all of the foreign-language versions of SUMO.  We just need a volunteer.   There have been thus far no specific calls to individuals to supply ontologies; very soon a broad call will be sent out, and later if necessary contacts with individual ontology custodians will be made if the broad call does not elicit a response.    If you know the custodian of any ontology you think is valuable, please feel encouraged to contact that person and make her/him aware of this project, and of its intended comprehensive coverage

Next year I vow to participate (unless I can organize and entice some of you to have a summer meetup in Vancouver, Canada).  

How does SUMO fit into the list below.  Dr. Adam Pease spent a great deal of time trying to capture some of the FOL concepts for an upper level ontology and I have not seen his work explicitly called out during the course of this discussion.  Perhaps it is orthogonal?  Has anyone an opinion around this?

Peter and All,

In the context of discussing what SIO means to someone, and what work is
envisioned to be accomplished, a question that came to me was what is
the relation between OOR and SIO, and Peter you suggested that a better
question would be what are the relations between

* JohnSowa's Lattice of Theories
  * PatCassidy's FO/COSMO
  * SIO
  * COLORE
  * BioPortal
  * OOR
  * Ontolog

Your more inclusive question is better to help get the discussion going so I included it here.
