Ali and Bart,    (01)


Great analyses.  I totally agree with your assessment and would
support moving ahead with your approach.    (02)

[ppy]  as for whether PSMW is the right tool to use, I have 3 comments:    (04)

(i)  we can find out more about this when you join us at the psmw meeting(s).    (05)

(ii)  there are folks who are adept MW/SMW extension developers on the
PSMW team; therefore, if what's currently available on SMW doesn't
exactly fit your purpose now, it doesn't mean it can't or won't be (if
you have a solid case for what you need is worth implementing into
PSMW.)    (06)

(iii)  I suspect we will need to be supporting multi-modal inputs,
from the site developers, as well as (some portion of) the users too.
So, we are not talking about either-or, but more like, which suite of
tools will come into play.    (07)

... that said, being able to deliver something in short order, and
kicking that into a "continuous improvement" mode, could be among the
criteria that helps us decide.    (08)

[ppy]  great! ... Just to clarify, OOR is a separate and distinct
initiative (from Ontolog or PSMW) despite the fact that there are some
overlap in the participants.    (010)


Thanks & regards.  =ppy
