Hi Everyone, The TDWG Infrastructure Project team have a milestone/deliverable to produce a document to act as a road map for the TDWG Architecture. I have prepared a document that I believe pulls together the ideas and consequences from the TAG-1 meeting and the two GUID meetings plus various discussions held at the OGC meeting in Edinburgh. This document introduces the notion of a 'Semantic Hub' which is a proposed mechanism to expose TDWG semantics through multiple technologies: XML Schema; GML; OWL; etc. I would be most grateful if you could find time to have a look at this six page document: http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/TAG/ArchitectureOverview and give any feedback on the wiki page, via this list or directly to me. Many thanks, Roger -- ------------------------------------- Roger Hyam Technical Architect Taxonomic Databases Working Group ------------------------------------- http://www.tdwg.org roger@tdwg.org +44 1578 722782 -------------------------------------
