All,    (02)

Below are some questions from Patrick Durusau that I thought might be better 
answered by other folks in our group.    (03)

Jerry,    (05)

The QUOMOS charter just came across my desk and I have a couple of 
questions I wanted to ask before posting anything to the comment list.    (06)

Is the gist of this proposal that existing standards for measurement are 
going to be re-written in CLIF (Common Logic Interchange Format) and 
from there normative representations are going to be created in OWL 2.0 
DL and UML?    (07)

That is to say that the TC really isn't creating any measurement 
ontologies but simply expressing existing measurement systems as ontologies?    (08)

BTW, while looking for background information (and running across Pat 
Hayes, Peter Yim, etc. the usual ontology gang) I also saw PSL (Process 
Specification Language), http://www.mel.nist.gov/psl/ontology.html. Not 
relevant but thought it looked interesting.    (09)

Subject: More questions    (013)

Jerry,    (014)

Sorry, more questions:    (015)

What other ontologies exist for measurement?    (016)

Other than the use of CLIF, how is this work going to differ from those 
projects?    (017)

What permissions have been obtained for the use of the content of other 
standards organizations in the QUOMOS work?    (018)

Thanks!    (019)

Hope you are having a great day!    (020)
