Minutes of the last meeting

Correct

  

Matters arising

Barry has replied and so we will be putting an abstract into SigDoc. This will include our work, plus the joint activities with IBM’s XML DITA document architecture

 

Work still outstanding:

Refine AKT scenario and apply WebML to it and put it on the website.

While we go through the process of re-writing the scenario so that it can be used by WebML, we should note and reflect on the process we take to translate the natural language description to a form that can be used by any of the models.

 

 

 1.      SUMMARY OF DISCUSSIONS

A CD of the WICK scenarios has been sent to Colin Bird.

 

Technical report numbers and ISBN have been issued, for the conversion of the WWW03 paper.

 

Gary has completed the draft workshop and short papers for HT03, we will have to wait to see what workshops are announced at HT03 before we do any fine tuning.

           

It was decided not to convert the WWW03 paper to a short paper in HT03, as we will not be able to explain our ideas properly within the 2 page limit.

Arouna now has an initial prototype of his authoring tool ready, so it was agreed that we would write a short paper on Arouna’s tool kit to present and discuss the early results.

As this authoring tool integrates/communicates with the AKT knowledge Base, we should acknowledge this and write a showcase report with a vertical demonstration of the application based on a scenario (include a link to our own site).

 

Gary is still working on refining the scenario for writing a research proposal.
