Well Adam, your proposal for a US2TS session now makes me sad that I don’t have funding to attend!

It might be nice to look at how to properly extend schema.org <http://schema.org/> in that context as it might draw Dan Brickley and/or Natasha to attend. I was thinking we could briefly review a successful extension (GS1), propose some extensions from the geosciences (improving temporal coverage of Dataset - with OWL Time, SWEET,) and use mode of the time brainstorming on the mechanics of the extension (how best to link into schema.org <http://schema.org/> core classes and properties) and constructing the data model for the extension (identify the new classes and properties needed to describe temporal coverage needs.

Please take a look at the website at http://us2ts.org/2019/ <http://us2ts.org/2019/> and email the list if you have ideas for a session that you?d like to submit.

The CfP is available at http://us2ts.org/2019/posts/cfp.html <http://us2ts.org/2019/posts/cfp.html> and I would suggest that anyone interested take a look at it. Their guidelines state that a suitable balance of participants is 3 with each preferably being from a different institution. If we can align on a topic for our session, then I doubt we will struggle to meet these guidelines.

This would cover generalities such as fundamental Semantic Technologies but would be skewed towards the Earth Science's to make it a bit more interesting hopefully, OR
>> * Breakout-style discussions on a proposed topic with that topic being use of established vocabularies (schema.org <http://schema.org/>) for improving data discovery across the sciences. This would provide some continuity on the underlying theme of this year's GeoSemantics Symposium we will be hosting in January as well as an AGU Session on a very similar topic.

>> As a theme, I suggest we stick with "... use of established vocabularies e.g. schema.org <http://schema.org/>, for improving data discovery across the sciences." 
>> The reason I propose that we stick with a common theme is that it is beginning to gain acceptance. To put it into the terminology used by Peter Fox during his Hype Cycle presentation, schema.org <http://schema.org/> has entered the Plateau of Productivity! My feeling is that if we stick with it, we could make some serious impact.
