It was Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen who said at the right time 09.06.2009 20:44 the following words: <blockquote cite="mid:9961daf10906091144oa2ce550n4f48a68a2904c1e0@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">2009/6/9 Urho Konttori <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:urho.konttori@nokia.com"><urho.konttori@nokia.com></a>: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">ext Evgeny Egorochkin wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On 9 ÉŔÎŃ 2009 04:52:06 Antoni Mylka wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hello Xesamies (Xesams, Xesamians, is there an accepted form? ), </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">Xesamies sounds good :) </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">I volunteer for: š- moving the current ontology source files to whatever repository is š šchosen, both the trunk and the 8 'revisions' already 'released' š- dropping the legacy constraint that the ontologies must be editable š šin Protege, which didn't work anyway, and make the protege->NRL š šconversion step unnecessary š- moving the doc generator to whatever repository is chosen š- setting up the "build" so that with a single call to 'ant' the š šdocumentation will be regenerated and all example files will be š švalidated against the current version of the ontology š- spearheading the effort to get some export of the trac history from š šthe nepomuk trac and importing it to whatever issue tracker is chosen š š(I personally favour trac, dunno how difficult it would be to š šimport trac issues to bugzilla - all kinds of comments welcome). š- maintaining the 'build' code infrastructure š- helping all other ontology maintainers as far as I can š- maintaining all the ontology parts for which no separate maintainer š šsteps up.

As long as people are willing to write code, I'll find the time to tell them what to do^H^H^H^H^H maintain ontologies :) This can work for awhile. More visibility and synergetic effects will fix this over time. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">I can be maintainer of NMM once we agree to include that in the official ontologies (and drop the NID3 and possibly even NEXIF while doing so). Also, by replacing the nid3, and nexif, we have 1 less ontology to get a maintainer for ;). Pros: I designed that together with Evgeny Egorochkin and Mikael Ottela. NMM is still not completely sanity tested and may still need quite a few changes, so I would be a good person to do that. Cons: Quite busy until next autumn. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> I must admit that it feels a bit like stealing to offer maintainership of something I didn't develop myself, but here goes anyway :-) I could probably take NAO - or to be honest I have great interest in the particular subject of annotations and I believe that the NAO could be so much more powerful. As a side note I must also admit that I've found that it doesn't meet my needs for how we plan to use Gnome Zeitgeist. More or that at a later time... I don't have a lot of time, but NAO is small (and I believe it should stay that way) so it might work out. </pre> </blockquote> ok, put you on the list... as we kind-of-agreed to move to sourceforge, I now made a copy of this list here: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/oscaf/wiki/OntologyMaintenance">http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/oscaf/wiki/OntologyMaintenance</a> which was before there: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://dev.nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/wiki/OntologyMaintenance">http://dev.nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/wiki/OntologyMaintenance</a> best Leo <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- ____________________________________________________ DI Leo Sauermann <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.dfki.de/~sauermann">http://www.dfki.de/~sauermann</a> Deutsches Forschungszentrum fuer Kuenstliche Intelligenz DFKI GmbH Trippstadter Strasse 122 P.O.
