Timothy, Tania & Martin,  (01)
This sounds great!  (02)
While I'll defer to Matthew to answer you on the 
specifics in reference to the content, I'd like to 
clarify whether this would be a replacement for, or an 
addition to the talk along the lines of Protege and 
database applications which we were hoping you and/or 
Tania will be giving us? (We did have specific request 
from the community that they wanted to hear more about 
this.) ... You might also consider putting a a panel 
session where all three of you (Tim, Tania and Martin 
would be on the panel, starting with your specific 
presentations, and then followed by a discussion among 
the panel and the participants.  (03)
Please advise your thoughts and preference.  (04)
Cheers. =ppy  (05)
P.S. (a) I have taken the liberty to move your message 
to this conversation thread. =ppy  (06)
(b) since we don't have Martin or Tania on the 
[ontolog-forum] list yet, I hope neither of you would 
mind if I subscribe you both to the list (at least for 
the time being, you may choose the no-mail option, or 
unsubscribe later, if you prefer) so as to include you 
in the conversation, during the planning of these talks 
for the mini-series. Let me know if you object. Tx. =ppy

Database and Ontology ...  (08)
Hello Peter,  (09)
I wanted to run the following suggestion by you. It 
seems to me that Martin O'Connor would be the right 
person to give a really interesting talk on the subject 
of Databases and Ontologies. He is working on the
problem of making SWRL work with data in a database. 
He is using a mapping from an arbitrary database to RDF 
triples. He is now looking at an existing mapping tool 
(D2RQ I think). As the SWRL inference executes
it generates sql queries by using the D2RQ mapping. 
This sounds like a very interesting subject and I would 
like to hear this talk.  (010)
Does this topic fit with the goal of the mini-series? 
Can he make the talk in about 5-6 weeks?  (011)
-Timothy
