Thank you, Matthew.

I would suggest we also collect (C) arguments commonly used against
Ontology, which you have been able to effectively provide
counter-argument(s) for (we need both sides ... and presumably, this
category would include (derogatory) myths about Ontology and how they
could be debunked.)

The collection will be displayed on the wiki under ... (feel free to
post there, directly, too.)

I would suggest we consider creating a "debate" in debategraph.org. It can really help organize the ideas, and present them in a nice way.

It has been used, for instance, by the White House to report on the discussions about Open Gov - see http://debategraph.org/flash/fv.aspx?r=19224, referenced from http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Open-Government-Brainstorm-Collaboration-in-Action/.

There are many other interesting examples in the debategraph website.

Take a look!

Best

Daniel
