The new members will strengthen the expertise of our group in the respective fields and
bring in very interesting application cases.
b) The next (4th) CIDOC CRM SIG and ISO/TC46/SC4/WG9 meeting is scheduled for
July 2-5, in Copenhagen, and will be hosted by the National Museum of Denmark.
It will be devoted to decide on the last contents amendments, as proposed in the last
meeting (minutes to appear soon), and going to be published on the issues list. Further decisions
on the complete set of scope notes have to be taken, particularly those elaborated in the
last meeting. Then the focus of the group will shift to address with priority issues
of presentation, dissemination,training and application and attracting more members.
c) The 5th CIDDOC CRM SIG and ISO/TC46/SC4/WG9 meeting is scheduled for
November, in Heraklion, Crete, and will be hosted by ICS-FORTH
It will be devoted to make last decisions on scope notes and presentation of the CIDOC CRM
contents. By this stage, the CIDOC CRM should be ready to propose an FDIS.
Then the group will focus on dissemination,training and applications, and
preparation of specific dissemination actions. Question of validating applications and
proliferation of know-how about the CRM will be addressed, as well as the preparation
of the sixth meeting.
d) The 6th CIDDOC CRM SIG and ISO/TC46/SC4/WG9 meeting is scheduled for
early spring 2003. The National Museum of the American Indian, Smithsonian Institution
offers to host this meeting in Washington.
This meeting will focus on adressing a wide public, to increase the visibility and knowledge
about the CIDOC CRM in the wider community of museums, archives, libraries, digital libraries,
publishers, education, system implementers, promoters of the Semantic Web and all others
producing cultural contents, consuming cultural contents, and those dealing with the enabling
technology for contents access, management and presentation. It will put the CIDOC CRM in
a wider context of solving the problem of semantic interoperability, be it within larger organisations
or the "Semantic Web". It will address questions of making optimal use of the standard
to become, its further support and related development suited to support semantic interoperability
in our cummunities and their partners, and how keep it in pace with technological developments
and social demands. It will make decision on how to continue work from an organisational
perspective.
All meetings will begin with a tutorial about the CIDOC CRM.
best regards,
Martin
