Goals
- Create a domain definition for the VIVO ontology
- Make an ontology change - that is expected to be no / low impact; e.g. spelling correction, additional class; doesn't involve a change in the VIVO software
- Make an ontology change where there is a software change (preferably a small change)

What is the domain of the VIVO ontologies?
Notes
- What is the domain of the VIVO ontologies
- VIVO wants to be brand when it thinks about scholarship
- Original development - not particularly strong in the arts
- Modular ontology would allow people to turn on / off the modules that they are interested in
- Modules should be concepts - may be concepts that are only applicable in a local domain
- When we say scholarship, do we also include museums? - yes
- OpenRIF, when discussing is "scholarship" exclusionary, settled on the word "expertise"
- Should it be broadened to experts such as IT personnel, who are working in a scholarly centre, but not doing research?
- Do we care about whether a publication was part of a grant, project, etc.?
- Can there be an ontology around research funding? CASRAI has a lot of terms in the vocabulary that aren't suitable for VIVO.
EuroCRIS has a model for research funding See http://www.sparontologies.net/ontologies/frapo/source.html#d4e3103)

- Inclusion of new class
- Changing labels
- Metadata about the ontology - e.g. attribution of ontology
- "Rare" ontology items - things that aren't used commonly. Can we be certain?
