[16:57] Zena: maria are you on the call?
[17:04] MariaKeet: ZW: will distribute last meeting's chat transcript
[17:04] MariaKeet: === item: Summer School ===
[17:05] MariaKeet: ZW: ZW & MK will come up with a programme, ask committee for input/suggestions
[17:06] MariaKeet: ZW: OK local chair & website
[17:06] MariaKeet: ZW & MK general chair
[17:08] MariaKeet: FL: link to FOIS
[17:15] MariaKeet: (some brainstorming on names for speakers for the summer school)
[17:17] MariaKeet: FL: consult input from people on quality of speaking/lecturing
[17:18] FrankLoebe: (on earlier item) [action] [ZW] ask Oliver for roles in summer school
[17:24] MariaKeet: outcome: brainstorm more, offline
[17:24] FrankLoebe: [action] [FL,MK,ZW] continue brainstorming via email
[17:25] MariaKeet: ===== ontology competition 2016 ====
[17:25] MariaKeet: ZW, MK, FL: no clear idea still what the FOIS onto competition will be
[17:26] MariaKeet: MK: no additional ideas proposed
[17:27] MariaKeet: FL: still to summarise some ideas and distribute
[17:28] MariaKeet: sill -> will
[17:28] MariaKeet: ==== EC wiki ===
[17:28] MariaKeet: sandra emailed an update
[17:29] MariaKeet: 1: email asking for term definitions
Since we didn't receive any term suggestions, I propose to send the same mail to ontolog-forum (ontolog-forum at googlegroups.com). There are almost 1000 members and they have various discussions that also often include terminology.
I will also check Andrea's blog for terms and we can search for more term definitions online.
2: setup of term-specific wiki pages
I was planning to create pages, but I currently have a lot of classes and couldn't find the time. If Amanda can help, it would be nice. Otherwise, I will be able to do it in January.
We talked in October about term information: term + area + example + reference/source. So, this should be on each term-specific page.
[17:33] MariaKeet: ZW: first set up the page, then ask ontolog; else ends up chaotic
[17:33] MariaKeet: FL: use proxy to add, or distribute pwd widely?
[17:33] MariaKeet: FL,ZW: proxy
[17:34] MariaKeet: ZW: will reply to Sandra
[17:34] MariaKeet: Q on contact list
[17:36] MariaKeet: MK will add link to the wiki to sign up to the mailing list
[17:37] MariaKeet: FL: on difference between committee members and mailing list members? same?
[17:37] MariaKeet: FL: esp. w.r.t. making decisions
[17:38] MariaKeet: MK: small enough for now
[17:40] MariaKeet: MK: put point on agenda for next meeting, when there will be more people
[17:40] MariaKeet: === public vs private mailing list archives ===
[17:41] MariaKeet: FL: some things not suitable for public archive. how to deal with this?
[17:41] MariaKeet: FL: e.g., on the summerschool draft details, isn't exactly public material
[17:42] MariaKeet: FL: ties in with the members & followers points
[17:43] MariaKeet: ZW: let's first try with emails. if that doesn't work, the private mailing list
[17:43] MariaKeet: === footer ====
