session page: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_10_30

Proceedings:
anonymous morphed into MikeBennett

PeterYim: we had some interesting discussion (revisit that via the audio archive) ... but decided that we need more people's input and consensus before we should discuss strategy and start tweaking the direction we are going.

PeterYim: therefore, it is decided that we will postpone the discussion of today's main topic "OOR Strategy and Funding" (probably more on "Strategy" and less on "Funding" if we don't have enough time) to the regular OOR monthly team meeting next week.

PeterYim: so be sure to join us on Tue 2012.11.06 for our next monthly OOR Team Meeting and the "Strategy" discussion. The developing session page for that will be at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_11_06

PeterYim: bye
