Agenda & Proceedings

1. Meeting called to order:

  • review and adopt agenda

2. Roll Call:

3. Issues brought forward:

  • postmortem of the 08-Nov-2007 OKMDS Launch Event. There were about 47 attendees at peak and about 40 on average (roughly the same number as those at the 2007.10.25 Second Life tutorial session.) The speakers did an excellent job of expressing the objectives. KMWG is now a collaborator of the series along with Ontolog and NASA. Glad we were able to incorporate that into all the documentation before the launch event. So OKMDS is a joint NASA-Ontolog-KMWG mini-series now.

4. Status of developing issues:

  • Outstanding Issue Update:
  • suggest program content for the next 2~3 months or even the entire 6 months of the mini-series
    • speaker sessions - candidate speaker, topic, date (for each)
    • panel discussions - topic, chair/moderator, candidate panelists (for each)
    • Suggestions:
      • Peter: SOFI panel - Gordon, Glenn, Yim, cheyer, Baclawski, Cassidy, Bedford - aim for this being the next event early Dec.
