Mark Gahegan, who is unable to easily participate in our session due to time zone differences makes a point on the absence of governance for Ontologies.  He presented these at a UCSB Vocamp and asks:
 How should ontologies be governed? and notes:

The ontologies we create are highly contested research artefacts:
they cannot be simply imposed on a community, or the risk of rejection is very high. 
We need a process of open consideration, comment, revision, and hopefully, acceptance. 
Where is the process by which a research community can comment on, update, refute, augment or maybe even accept an ontology?
