Mike, (04)
Ref:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum//uos-convene/2006-02/msg00054.html#nid02
and
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?UpperOntologySummit#nidIOJ (05)
Our definition is: (06)
"'Co-sponsors' are organizations who would provide technical or
funding support (which all of you are already doing), and/or endorsing
the purpose of this Upper Ontology Summit effort..." (07)
Your technical contribution (and the in kind financial support by paying
for your trip) clearly puts Boeing up there. (08)
I don't think it will be misleading, especially if we properly display
that definition (which we already have). ... Would that do? (09)
