TC.Memberdatabase: taxonomies (was Re: Member/Interested Party --Database)

[Ranjeeth Kumar Thunga <rkthunga@humanmarkup.org>]

This, along with a few other task items, is slightly delayed here, but a couple of ADDITIONS to the member database:

-----------------

 

1) checkboxes (fixed fields) in additions to descriptions (Rex, you brought this up already..simply mentioning it here to aid my memory).

2) frameworks/taxonomies:  Members of authoritative organizations can provide the authority for certain taxonomies/frameworks, and this can be documented in our member database.  These contributors would not necessarily be members of the OASIS TC, but could be subject matter experts or liaisons.  Examples could be liaison representing the "Roman Catholic Church" "American Psychological Association", "Indian Mission to UN" or "Republican Party", and their associated political/social/religious taxonomies.

 

This is a little bit delayed (along with a few other deliverables), but progress is being made.  Volunteer assistance is duly appreciated ;-).

Subject: Member/Interested Party -- Database

 

Over the last few months, there have been many people expressing interest in the effort, and contribution to start shaping HumanMarkup.
However, due to the different points in discussion we were at, the effort may not have appealed to everyone's interest at any given time.

 

We are starting a database of all interested parties in HumanMarkup, to allow us to begin to network between each other.   We will include the following members in this database. 

 

Due to privacy considerations, only contributors who have those who have asked to be part of the Technical Committee, *OR* _publicly_ posted their information during Phase 0/Phase 1, will be listed in the publicly accessible database.

 

These are fields (as they stand):

 

   Name:
   Organization (sponsoring)
   Organization (non-sponsoring)
   Address
   Phone
   Email
   Interests
   Background
   Desired Contribution to HumanMarkup
   Desired Results of HumanMarkup
   Role within TC:  admin, technical, member, non-member
   Other resources/information
