EU-funded IKS Project Invites Open Source CMS to Workshop on Semantic Requirements
The European "IKS" Project ("Interactive Knowledge Stack") is inviting Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) community members to a workshop on May 28-29 in Salzburg, Austria. At this workshop IKS would like to achieve some consensus on "semantic requirements" for open source content management systems. There are already over 30 confirmed participants who will during the workshop gather requirements as the first development step towards an open source technology stack for semantic-enabled open-source CMS. If you think you should be at the IKS workshop, find more information and a contact at http://www.iks-project.eu/requirements-workshop-28-29-may-2009. About IKS Project Interactive Knowledge Stack (IKS) is an Open Source project to speed the implementation and broaden the reach of the semantic web across Europe and beyond. Funded in part by a €6.58m grant from the European Union, the project targets the thousands of SME companies across Europe who provide content and knowledge management technology. Its aim is to develop an open flexible technology framework that allows these companies to enable their products to deliver semantic-web-enabled, intelligent content. Downstream, this will provide a greater choice of cost effective solutions for organisations looking to implement semantic-web-enabled sites and applications, and bring significant benefits to millions of content consumers. IKS is developed by a core consortium of seven research partners and six industrial partners involving six open source CMS providers and actively encourages corporate and individual participation in the project.
