Of course Susie is doing a fabulous job! And I have already told her
this. Gracious! calm down,
my point was that this had been reported to me as a key "make or break"
meeting on LSIDs and I just wanted to point out that many people who are
interested cannot come today.
It was no criticism of Susie and none was intended. If you read the
message no criticism of Susie is actually made.
Susie, we love you

Hi All,
I would also give a strong DITTO to the leadership Susie is providing
on this extremely important issue. Getting clarification on the pros
& cons is essential to catalyzing broader adoption of SWTech.
I would also add I'm extremely grateful to ALL the experts who've been
presenting clear arguments and information related to this issue.
It's all been extremely valuable. Susie is working very hard to
collate this information and provide this as a resource to the
community. As Alan mentioned, this will remain an ongoing and
critical debate, and it will be of value to us all to help provide a
clearing house for documentation related to to this issue on the
BioRDF Wiki pages.
The group of people listening in on this debate here on this list are
a self-selected population of technically astute folks with
implementation of SWTech on their minds - and probably on their
immediate list of TODOs, if not already on their list of previous
achievements. Most will be very knowledgeable of the general
technical issues and will be likely to dig into the details presented
on both sides of the argument. I have found all the details
extremely illuminating - especially the thorough background and
references provided by Sean and the specifics given regarding the
debates the TAG has had on this issue.
I think I can assure Carole no one here would be likely to take the
achievements of those who've implemented LSID-based systems - and ARK
and the others - lightly - or those who might, would be doing
themselves and the communities they represent a great disservice.
I look forward to Monday and the follow-up discussions both on the
list, in future TCons, and on the HCLSIG-BioRDF Wiki.
Cheers,
Bill

Ditto on that!

Quoting Alan Ruttenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>:
Susie shouldn't take any blame for this - The meeting is
one in a
series, is well announced, and would certainly have been
rescheduled
if, like, anyone with an interest had bothered to
request it with
adequate advance notice.
There's nothing particularly special about this meeting.
If others with
interest in the subject want a further meeting to discuss
things then
we should do that.
Regards,
Alan

By the way I have already lodged an objection to Susie
that to have
such a telecon when many people who actually, like, use
the stuff for,
like, real are at ISMB2006 in Brazil and will not be
able to
participate. Like Doh!
