Notes

I. I-Fest wrap-up

  • Regarding ontology, we only had less than two hours due to the importance of brainstorming key open issues and priorities for the whole community
    • a deep concern that the ontology is still in a state where it's not easy to contribute and no FTE to work on it – have to get the ball rolling
    • need to get ontology people together again soon – can we plan a working meeting at the Conference - a come and do workshop vs. come and learn
  • Also need to summarize and disseminate our notes to the community
    • Perhaps we can cross-reference those ideas to upcoming task forces; it was a great format not having people separated off so much of the time
    • But we saw the community was looking for the opportunity for a big group think instead of going off into smaller rooms to do work
    • The latter has to happen
  • The only working meeting we currently have at the conference is the Leadership Group meeting Wednesday afternoon
    • If we want additional working meetings, it may take people out of the conference
    • Symplectic will likely want to do their North American Saturday
    • A working dinner after the leadership group? Or get a meeting room Tuesday afternoon to work on specific areas
  • Need to round up presentations as a complete set on Google Drive
  • Will conduct a survey of IFest attendees.
