Exactly. The focus of the Tuesday meeting is on achieving agreement
on the desirability of establishing closer correspondence among the
major upper ontologies and on clarifying issues and possible methods
to deal with them, resulting, in the best of all worlds, in the
elements of an action plan. (01)
The focus of the W meeting is on getting buy-in from the application
community. There is a lively discussion right now that will lead to
an improved agenda for that day. It is my sense from reading the
email exchange that the organizing committee welcomes and is very
open to changes in the agenda that will further the objective of the day. (02)
