Maewyn: Looks good. I have one question however. In Amsterdam we talked about taxonomy harmonization and I was fairly sure we decided that "Harmony Reconciliation" may be a better goal/term. I am speaking just for myself but I firmly believe the notion that the whole world will use one harmonized vocabulary is not valid. I think it will never be this way and we need to focus on a mechanism for reconciliation of existing taxonomies rather than trying to force harmonization. Einstein said "When solving a problem you must not use the same thinking you did when you created the problem". The problem has been created by those who did work under the auspices that the entire world will use one taxonomy. One will never work and I believe going forward on the basis that there will be more than one taxonomy will make our work more relevant.
