=====================================

The adoption of the W3C OWL Web Ontology Language in real-world
applications continues to grow as the research and tools for OWL mature.
The new version OWL 2 -- becoming a W3C recommendation late last year --
has been a positive factor in this direction. As the experience in using
OWL in different applications and domains increases, the strengths and
weaknesses of the language are discovered, resulting in new research
and development that further extends its reach.

The OWL: Experiences and Directions (OWLED) workshop series aims at
bringing users, implementors and researchers from academia and industry
together to describe applications of OWL, to share experience, and to
discuss extensions to the language for satisfying application
requirements. The workshop will allow the OWL community to set an
an agenda for research and deployment in order to incorporate OWL-based
technologies into new applications.

This year's OWLED workshop will be co-located with the 2010 Semantic
Technology Conference (SemTech) that will be held in San Francisco,
California on June 21-22. The W3C Workshop on RDF Next Steps will be
held near-by in Stanford, CA on June 26-27. Tutorials about OWL 2 and
related technologies may be organized for the larger SemTech community;
contact the chairs if you're interested.

As usual, the OWLED workshop will try to encourage participants to work
together and will give space for discussions on various topics to be
decided and published at some point in the future. There will also be
formal presentation of submissions to the workshop.

More information on the workshop is forthcoming. For more information
