11:22:50 larsbot tmbot: comment: Norwegian blog entry from the project lead for the Norwegian project for standards in e-learning about topic maps for e-learning. Quite interesting, if you can read Norwegian.

11:26:00 arnarl hola
11:26:04 larsbot aloha
11:26:22 larsbot I just chumped this, which you may want to read: http://home.hio.no/~toreh/blog/arkiv/000012.html
11:29:25 arnarl Interesting blog
11:29:34 larsbot yeah, it is
11:30:14 arnarl The previous blog entry mentions an RSS 1.0 implementation that I did :)
11:30:26 larsbot oh, cool :)
11:30:30 arnarl He even figured how it works with different channels
11:32:21 arnarl who is this fellow?
11:32:28 arnarl Does he work for Bekk?
11:33:03 larsbot nope. he's project lead for estandard.no
11:33:11 larsbot a project for Norwegian e-learning standardization
11:33:43 arnarl how is he related to utdanning.no?
11:34:58 larsbot indirectly. he works in the same area, but is not involved in the portal
11:35:08 larsbot as far as I know, anyway
11:48:21 arnarl What is the LOM metadata-structure?
11:48:32 arnarl or what is it supposed to cover...
11:50:37 arnarl ah, ok found a definition
11:51:01 larsbot it's an IEEE standard which defines an abstract data model of metadata
11:51:12 larsbot no syntax or anything
11:53:56 arnarl Is it Dublin Core like?
11:54:45 arnarl focused on properties/metadata or more like ABC
11:56:35 arnarl http://jodi.ecs.soton.ac.uk/Articles/v02/i02/Lagoze/
12:03:42 larsbot it's properties, but it also has some entities, I think
12:03:54 larsbot and some of the properties are more complex than simple strings

14:25:53 arnarl hi mariyo
14:27:49 mariyo hi arnarl! looks like norway is very active with tms as always :)
14:28:21 arnarl Are you refering to any event in particular?
14:30:34 mariyo looks like there is activity in elearning and topic maps (from reading the logs)
14:32:12 mariyo are monthly meetings for sc34 in japan are getting bigger and bigger, i think there must have been about 10 people there last week. now we are discussing a liasion with sc36. this things seem to happen all of a sudden.
14:32:36 mariyo this/these
14:34:25 arnarl Yeah, it is a bit overwhelming at times.
14:34:58 arnarl The e-learning angle is very interesting, but not something we at Creuna have spent any time on.
14:35:46 arnarl TopicMaps is becoming too big to be involved (or even follow) all its aspects and uses.
14:38:38 mariyo yeah, it is important to stay focused, but really hard in principle.
14:40:47 mariyo we have meetings which help sort things out. we need to consider what would be best for japan.
14:41:53 mariyo i am also involved with a learning management system at work, so it may help there.
14:43:45 mariyo looks like time to read a book. nice speaking with you. bye arnarl :)
14:43:53 arnarl ciao
