VoCamp New York - Vocabulary Building Workshop

From Semantic Web NYC

http://semweb.meetup.com/25/calendar/10615059/

VoCamp is an informal event where people can spend some dedicated time creating lightweight vocabularies/ontologies for the Semantic Web/Web of Data. The emphasis of the events is not on creating the perfect ontology in a particular domain, but on creating vocabularies that are good enough for people to start using for publishing data on the Web. The intention is to follow a "paper first, laptops second" format, where the modeling is done initially on paper and only later committed to code. VoCamps are oriented to hands-on technical work and practical outputs; any presentations and demos should be short, highly on-topic to the vocabulary development process, and limited in number, to leave plenty of time for hacking on new vocabularies.

This is a two day session!
