OntologySummit2013: (Track-D) "Software Environments for Evaluating Ontologies" Community Input (3K9U)
Track Co-champions: MichaelDenny, KenBaclawski & PeterYim (3KAH)
Mission Statement: (3K9V)
Through this track, we aim to coordinate the following: T (3K9W)
- provide a venue to bring together individuals and communities who can help define and advance the state-of-the-art in software and systems for evaluating ontologies T (3L8Z)
- the collection and enumeration of software environments and tools for evaluating ontologies (with emphasis on those that are open efforts and those that are publicly available) T (3L90)
- investigations and development work (software prototyping and implementation) focused on the ontology evaluation theme, leading to interim presentations at the symposium, and possibly continued after this Ontology Summit ... (this bullet, which was on our original mission statement is now handled by the Hackathon-Clinics Activities champions - see: OntologySummit2013_Hackathon_Clinics) T (3L91)

Ref. Call for Proposals to the the "hackathon" and "clinics" activities - http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontology-summit/2013-02/msg00056.html (3NYU)
Agenda Idea: (3NYV)
- Make explicit that proposals may include slots for which they want/need additional help (what expertise). Also, there should be a call for, and way for, willing contributors who are not affiliated with one of these projects to register themselves and their skills, for proposers to see (and to generate additional energy/excitement). Having these separate, explicitly, may help with proposal speed / number (suggested by AmandaVizedom) (3O1G)
- encouraging collaboration and partnering in putting together a proposal (3NYW)
- any remaining issues, Q&A ref. the making of a "hackathon" or "clinic" proposal (3NYX)
- re-assess planned timeline and milestones (3NYY)

- do we want/need to extend the 2013.03.08 (this Thursday) proposal submission deadline? (3O53)
5. Any other business (3O54)
- YuriyMilov: why limit the hackathon to 1 or 2 days ... why not 4 weeks? (3O6A)
- Answer: [ppy] the constraint is in our ability to sustain an open distributed collaboration workspace for intensive work for a long time ... we should recognize the project partner can (and would) be working independent of those 1 or 2 days; just treat those 1 or 2 days as the "community collaboration" days. (3O6G)

- note that one will have to log in, to contribute to the survey (the login anyone is using at the OntologWiki now should also work on the OntologPSMW) (3NHM)
