15:30 Session 8: Panel Discussion: How Might OWL Fail?
Panelists: Nick Drummond, Michel Dumontier, Tom Heath, Carsten Lutz
Moderator: Sean Bechhofer
The successful uptake of particular technologies depends on a number of factors: technical, social and political. The purpose of this panel will be to explore factors that may prove a barrier to the wide-spread usage (and thus success) of OWL with an emphasis on those of a non-technical nature.
Panelists will provide an initial 3-minute position statement (no slides), which should include discussion of the following questions:
What single thing should the OWL community stop doing as it is a barrier to adoption
What single thing should the OWL community start doing in order to foster adoption?
Playing the role of an evil mastermind, if you really wanted to derail OWL's progress and success, what would you do?
Following the opening statements, there will be a brief round of responses from the panelists (1 minute each). The meeting will then be opened to the floor.
In the final 5 minutes, the panelists will be given the opportunity to sum up their positions in the light of the discussions and hopefully provide insight into why OWL will not fail
