== Agenda ==
Full agenda at: http://ontolog-02.cim3.net/w/index.php?title=IAOA_SWAO_SIG-confcall_n_12&oldid=14938#hid4 

== 1. Housekeeping ==

=== 1.1 Fix bugs on: http://www.iaoa.org/iaoaSIG/iaoaSIG.html ===
*bad link to SWAO official website from IAOA SIGs page (and misnamed)
*add SWAO SIG to the list in the body of the page
[Action] Leo will help resolving the bugs - contact Oliver.

=== 1.2 SIG Wiki landing page ===
*Suggestion: the landing page for the Wiki instead of being the current call would be something else, for example a listing of previous meetings and a notice saying when the next meeting is.
*Suggestion 2: list other events and things of interest potentially (High level events e.g. workshops).
*Consensus: One-off ("interesting") meetings - we want those linked to from the SWAO web page, as a one-off link and doesn't need to use the query on the wiki. These would have other attributes e.g. name and place.
[Action] Mike Bennett will suggest something for the landing page.
*Discussion on using using the query facilities that exist in the mediaWiki to automate the update of the SWAO events page.
*Suggestion: have the same query embedded on the SWAO web page as well.
[Action] Ken will see about the automated update of the list of meetings.
*Discussion: for future meetings, email thread and link, or (as for Sept) have nice notes on the wiki page?
*Suggestion: send out an email which points to the minutes, and have the minutes themselves nicely formatted in the wiki page.
*Consensus: preference is to have the minutes on the wiki and the email is just a pointer to these, but the volunteer can choose to do this simply by sending an email to the list. 
[Action] Elie to capture the minutes of this meeting and try to upload them on Wiki.

=== 1.3 Migration of the old wiki content ===
[Action] Ken will be creating meeting pages for the previous meetings (Then the minutes for those previous meetings could be simple links to email in some cases; others have been written up as a document which can be extracted).
[Note] First meeting is the only one that's different - was in a different format and is on a different page.
[Note] In the minutes on the wiki, the action items are tagged with "Action Item"

== 2. Education ==
*Education committee is interested in coordinating.
[Action] Leo to drop a note to Education committee 
*Suggestion: Talked about proposing Book as a possible activity for the Summit.
*Consensus: need co-ordination among SWAO, IAOA, OS Organizing Ctee; Ontolog Board of Trustees.

== 3. Brainstorming of things we as a SIG want to bring to the Thursday Ontology Summit ==
*Suggestion: a book to mine the 'embedded' knowledge in the Ontolog e-mail and Ontology Summits
*Discussion: anticipate generating slideware as training material through the Ontology Summit (OS) and the Book follows?
*Note: Bear in mind the main OS deliverable is always a Communique.
*Suggestion: OS virtual sessions might constitute the basis of tutorial material for SWAO, that would become eventual chapters of the Book.
*Discussion: Book structure: = structure of OS and Book Content = tutorial SWAO and then => book chapters.
[Action] All, use 9 Oct 2014 OS meeting as an opportunity for to make these distinctions and encourage folks to get involved in this SIG.
*Suggestion: include Conceptual Modeling SIG in this conversation?
*Suggestion: reach out to people from Onto.com and ODISE workshops - focused on Conceptual modeling and ontologies
*Suggestion: other modelling communities, ODM etc.
[Action] MikeB. and Elie reach out and market the SIG among organisers and participants of "OMG Standards in Support of Business Communication" Dec. 2014.
*Suggestion: Attract people to this group on the basis of addressing both aplication and business conceptual ontologies.

== 4. Next steps from having an issue in Applied Ontology ==
*News: Green light from Nicolas.
*Suggestion: Special issue would focus on the themes of the last Ontology Summit.
*Note: need to think about the timeline.
*Suggestion: establish a couple of people to focus on this

== 5. Other Outreach ==
*Suggestion: reach out to the Conceptual Modeling SIG.
*Suggestion: reach out to Elisa Kendall, Cory Casanave.
