Philippe,
As I read through your text and wander through your webpages
I find that I need to ask a couple of questions of you by
way of orientation to your work, and also with regard to
what you would like to accomplish here, and I also need
to ask a question of the Chair and any others who may
have expertise concerning intellectual property and
commercial proprietary protections and rights.
Questions for PM:
1. What is the volume of work that is actually being submitted
for review? In other words, how much of the supplementary
material that is linked to by extension withing the bounds
of your webpages is meant to be purely informative and is
not intended for evaluation here?
2. In what variety of lights do you wish the submitted volume of work
to be regarded here, over and above being a potential contribution
to the prospective IEEE Standard Upper Ontology, or SUO for short?
That is, do you see it yourself as a contribution more broadly to
AI, computer science, engineering, logic, mathematics, philosophy,
and so on, and feel that it is fair game to examine it from any
of the perspectives that it may conceivably or eventually have
bearing on, or do you prefer to have it regarded more narrowly?
Question for the Chair and for the Group at Large:
I am not sufficiently familiar with the various issues of
intellectual property and commercial proprietary rights
to ask very informed questions here, but I sense that
many issues of that sort must come up as we examine
PM's work in a public setting. In what ways does
IEEE protect PM's work, and what is considered
fair to ask about his work, and what not?
