	 == Proceedings ==    (3YN6)
	[7:04] ToddSchneider: The lack of ontologists is considered a 'risk' from a business perspective    (3YN7)
	[7:09] PeterYim: == ToddSchneider took the chair, and starts the call    (3YN8)
	[7:22] PeterYim: Todd: where do we stand, as the OOR initiative?    (3YN9)
	[7:26] PeterYim: the way I see it, is, OOR as a project, has grown from having a mandate (among others) 
        to develop the OOR code to just coming up with the 3 priorities - metadata, API & UI and convincing everyone
        (all ontology repository developers and stewards) to adopt them ... we then focus on developing OOR content, 
        because that is what will get us users and adoption.    (3YNA)
	[7:38] PeterYim: Todd, please try to mute your own phone if you are not talking    (3YNB)
	[7:39] ToddSchneider: Done.    (3YNC)

	[7:43] PeterYim: I think leveraging ISWC, which is starting in less than 3 weeks, is a good place to start    (3YNE)
	[7:46] PeterYim: [action item] OOR will plan on delivering a OOR paper, even a workshop?, at ISWC 2014 (Trentino, IT)    (3YNF)
	[7:50] PeterYim: Michael: ISWC has 3 tracks (Research, Industry, IN-Use) ... and sessions emerge only after papers 
        are accepted (which has a 1 in 6 rate)    (3YNG)
	[7:51] PeterYim: Todd: maybe the right wordings in the call-for-papers will help drive up the odds    (3YNH)
	[7:52] PeterYim: Michael: TaniaTudorache will be the Research Track chair ... and the right contact    (3YNI)
	[8:03] PeterYim: KenBaclawski / ToddSchneider / PeterYim: at an upcoming (next?) OOR meeting (when we have more people), 
        let's decide who will champion the ISWC-2014 "paper" effort    (3YNJ)
	[8:06] PeterYim: I need the session title and abstract for the next 2 sessions quickly
