Great session yesterday! ... Led by our 2010 Ontology Summit general
co-chairs, Dr. Steven ray (Carnegie Mellon University, Silicon Valley)
and Professor Barry Smith (University at Buffalo), we had one of the
most interactive sessions ever. (01)
A HUGE thank you to our co-chairs and to all those who participated,
this brainstorm session brought forth an almost unprecedented level of
ideas, both in quality and quantity, on how this next Ontology Summit
discourse on "Creating the Ontologists of the Future" can be
structured and rolled out. (02)
Full proceedings of this OntologySummit2010 (Pre-launch) Community
Input & Planning Session, including the audio recording and the
in-session message transcript are already archived and are now
available from the session page at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2009_11_05 (03)
While the organizing committee will be hard at work culling these
ideas to prepare a program for the upcoming 3-months' of Summit
activities, we shall look forward to your participation at the
"OntologySummit2010: Launch Event" (virtual session) on Thursday
10-Dec-2009. Please mark your calendars now! (04)
In the mean time, please continue to post any idea or suggestion you
may have to the [ontology-summit] mailing list. (05)
Thanks & regards. =ppy

*Ontology Summit 2010*: "*Creating the Ontologists of the Future*" (010)
As we have done, for the past four years, we are now working on
putting together the next ontology summit. Co-organized by NIST,
Ontolog, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA along with other co-organizers and
co-sponsors (to be announced) we will be putting a focus on how we can
meet the growing need for ontology expertise and thus for new methods
and institutions for the training of ontologists. (011)
We invite you to join us at a community-wide brainstorming & planning
session to define the scope and approach, and solicit your personal
involvement in helping drive this very strategic agenda called out in
the theme of this next Ontology Summit. (012)
This summit will (at the least) continue to take the format of: (a)
three months of online discourse by the community of summit
participants (via the [ontolog-summit] archived mailing list), plus
(b) several virtual talks and panel discussions over the same period
of time (via augmented conference calls), which then culminate into
(c) a two-day face-to-face workshop at NIST (Gaithersburg, Maryland,
US) and (d) the release of a joint "Communique" by the summit
participants. [ Repeat: this is *not* a 2-day conference, but rather a
series of virtual and real events that span the next 3-months after
the Summit kick-off event. ] (013)
To help focus our efforts and help people plan their work calendars,
several things have already been (pretty much) locked-in: (014)
o the theme and challenge for this Summit will be in: "Creating the
Ontologists of the Future" (015)
o our Launch Event has been scheduled for Thu 2009.12.10; it will
be a 1.5-hour virtual session starting at 18:30 UTC (the regular
Ontolog event slot) (016)
o the 2-day face-to-face workshop at NIST (Gaithersburg, Maryland,
US) will be on Mon~Tue 15 & 16-March-2010 (017)
o except for the above, plans are wide open ... and we need your
ideas and input (018)
We will be holding this community-wide brainstorming & planning
session (conference call) next Thursday 5-Nov-2009 (i.e. tomorrow.) (019)
