Re: SUO WG rechartered for general activities,
John,
As i said, have nothing personal against James; again, only he has been
trying to save the cause of SUO. But you'd feel embarrassed if a Russian
Federation Army man to coordinate such an extraordinary enterprise.
Re. what ideas to brainstorm in the first place, i suggest to start from
what is most fundamental to the SUO:
o What is its subject matter: the world of things; the universe of
concepts; or the domain of master terms ? If it is the real world, then
what is its basic features and contours or which ways are its things?
o What are the key categories and meanings of reality, its standard
ontology, and how should they be represented by semantic technology and
knowledge systems?
