• Election of Member to take notes - Peter volunteered

• Purpose: Expectations about a Taxo-Thesaurus RoadMap and Goals, Milestones

• Some initial questions and revised list of questions
  • Bob: proposing a 4-point sketch on the deliverables ... solicits feedback on that. (ref: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologTaxoThesaurus#nidMTO)
    • Denise: Pat reminded us to keep our eyes on the "Value proposition" ... we should add that in
    • Peter: also highlight our "improvement vector" and our "multiple use case" context
  • Denise: guess we are taking the content and try to work it through different option (approaches)
  • Peter / Denise / Denise: we'll clearly identify different missions for the "Ontologizing the Ontolog Body of Knowledge" as an umbrella project, under which there will be several projects like this one (Taxo-Thesaurus).
  • Denise will locate the training set she generated on Teragram with the Ontolog CWE content (which may have been lost ... and if that's the case she will re-generate) and provide it to the team this week
    • ... with a good training set, concept extraction will be fairly straight forward.
    • Denise (to Bob's question): it will crawl anything .. output is generated in xml
  • this, and other projects in the series could get into an "integration phase" kick-off at our upcoming face-to-face at Stanford (July 23, 2006)
  • Bob will update mission statement based on today's discussion
