- Peter: the championship team (Ken, Michelle, Mike, Paul & Peter) should meet and start locking in some dates which is a scarce resource for all ... and for the Ontolog calendar too, although we have the luxury to choose between a Thursday (typical Ontolog event) or a Friday (typical OOR meeting) slots.
- this would be the discourse arm of the OOR initiative (with OOR proper being an implementation effort)
- (while open ontology content will be tackled in the "Emerging Ontology Showcase" mini-series), this mini-series can tackle the infrastructure, tools, research issues ... etc. (as we had discussed previously.)
- Ken: have a potential panelist from Sweden
- Peter: again, please use [oor-forum] or [ontolog-forum] lists to get the conversation going.
