RE: [regrep-semantic] Thoughts??? on Ontolog Invited Speaker Presentation - Leo Obrst

["Zachary Alexander" <zack2003@ebtdesign.com>]

Carl,

Here are a couple questions I would suggest: 
	*What domains are we proposing to serve? 
	*What is the natural timeline for a project of this type?
	*Is there a time constraint that we are working under? 
	*What kind(s)of domain outreach make sense?

Presentation - Leo Obrst


To have achievable deliverables I believe we must take an incremental
approach to our work.

To that end, I will produce a discussion list for our kick-off meeting .

It will include the proposal that we first gain an understanding of
Which
Version ebXMLRegistry supports of What form of semantics as identified
in
the (Leo Obrst) Ontology Spectrum .
