SUO: RE: Ballot Results: Both Motions Pass




Dear Colleagues,

Thank you for passing these two motions. 

I hope you realise that this will mean we all have to do 
some work!

I believe the next thing we need to do is to identify Project
Leaders for these two projects.

    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.
