Subject: FW: The European Commission initiative on Semantic Interoperability invites you to review the Asset Description Metadata Schema (ADMS)
Please see the Public Comment call below. This is a project I have contributed to wearing my eGov Member Section hat so please feel free to respond and also circulate this notice more widely if you know of others who would have an interest. Regards John Borras Chair OASIS eGOV MS Steering Committee m. +(0)44 7976 157745 Skype: gov3john From: joao.frade@pwc.be [mailto:joao.frade@pwc.be] Dear all, About the Asset Description Metadata Schema The Asset Description Metadata Schema (ADMS) is a common way to describe semantic interoperability assets including metadata schemas, controlled vocabularies and code lists. Better documenting semantic assets can help improve interoperability of eGovernment initiatives across Europe, and possibly beyond. ADMS will also be a key element of the upcoming federation of semantic asset repositories in Europe. Please consult the ADMS brochure [2] for further information. The current draft of ADMS was elaborated in the second half of 2011 by a multi disciplinary working group of 43 people, from 20 different Member States and the US. This work was based on earlier work in 2010, by a Working Group with representation from 17 EU member states, several EU institutions and the US. How can you help? You are invited to: 1. Download the ADMS specification from the Joinup platform [3]; and · Using the ADMS Forum [4] (registration required [5]); or
1. All comments will be registered in an issues list that will be discussed by the Working Group in early February. 2. Resolutions of those issues will be shared on Joinup, and will lead to a final version of the specification that will be submitted to the European Commission for endorsement by the EU Member States. 3. In Q2 and Q3 2012, the specification will be tested in a pilot implementation with four existing repositories. The results of that pilot will also be shared with the wider community through Joinup. Your contribution is important to us. Thank you in advance for your help. |
