SUO: SUO Ballot with 2 Questions
ATTN Voting Members of IEEE P1600.1 Standard Upper Ontology Working
Group:
1. Please acknowledge receipt of this ballot by Sept 26, 2003. But if
you vote by that date, there is no need to also acknowledge.
2. Please cast 2 votes on the below two ballot questions.
3. Votes may be in the form of YES, NO, or ABSTAIN. Each questions will
pass if both (a majority of voting members either vote or acknowledge
receipt of the ballot) and (YES votes are greater than [NO plus ABSTAIN
votes]).
4. The period for voting will end at midnight EDT on Oct 11, 2003. If a
majority of voting members have not yet voted or acknowledged, the chair
may extend the period for voting and may remind those who have not
responded.
5. Please email your vote to me, not the SUO list, unless you
specifically want your vote (and any comments) shared with everyone.
With 82 voting members, this would be too much list traffic.
6. Comments and discussions on the merits of these motions are permitted
during the voting period, but the wording will not be changed.

Title: Proposal to Develop a Standardisation Methodology and a
4 Dimensional Ontology to be included as Components within
the Information Flow Framework.
(Note 1 ballot, 2 votes)
------------------------------------------------------
Ballot Question #1:
The Standard Upper Ontology group approves the objective
and work programme set out below and encourages its
members to participate in the programme, developing
and reviewing the programme deliverables.
Objective
To develop a methodology for the development of standards
deliverables within the Standard Upper Ontology Workgroup.
Work Programme
1. Establish a methodology for developing and improving
SUO standards deliverables including establishing levels
of deliverable, approvals required to achieve a level,
and an issue raising and resolution process. Initial
material to indicate the intent is attached.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ballot Question #2:
The Standard Upper Ontology group approves the objective
and work programme set out below and encourages its
members to participate in the programme, developing
and reviewing the programme deliverables.
Objective
To develop a 4 dimensional ontology and include it as
a component within the Information Flow Framework.
Work Programme
1. Develop an ontology based on the 4-dimensional
paradigm. Initial material to act as a start point
is contained in ISO/FDIS 15926-2.
http://www.tc184-sc4.org/wg3ndocs/wg3n1328/lifecycle_integration_schema.h
tml
The approach will be to develop the ontology as
reusable components, where appropriate.
2. Make the 4-Dimensional Ontology available as components
within the Information Flow Framework and develop
mappings to other ontologies within the framework.
