Dear all,
it took a while, but finally the emotion incubator group is
coming to
life again, and is going for a second year of activities.
Our main aim
this year will be to:
* prioritise the requirements in view of applicability and
transparency;
* formulate a specification draft for an Emotion Markup
Language;
* illustrate how to combine the Emotion Markup Language with
existing
markup languages.
You are welcome to participate; here is how.
1. W3C members
==============
Some W3C groups have acted as "sponsors" for this
new incubator group;
still, they need to formally joing the group. Only your AC
representative can do that -- make them go to:
http://w
ww.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/39402/join
Groups who have already joined
------------------------------
Deutsche Telekom AG, T-Com (Felix Burkhardt)
Image, Video and Multimedia Systems Lab (IVML-NTUA) (Kostas
Karpouzis)
Groups who have shown interest but who have not yet formally
joined
------------------------------------------------------------
-------
Loquendo, S.p.A. (Paolo Baggia, Enrico Zovato)
Chinese Academy of Sciences (Jianhua Tao)
SRI International (Bill Jarrolds)
Fraunhofer Gesellschaft (Christian Peter)
Other groups are of course also invited to join; if they are
not listed,
it only means I am not aware of their interest at this
stage.
2. Invited experts
==================
If your institution is not a W3C member, you can still
participate in
the group as an "invited expert".
Here is the list of people who I believe have explicitly
told me they
would like to continue their work or join:
Björn Schuller, TUM
Catherine Pelachaud, Paris8
Dylan Evans
Eva Oliveira
Hannes Pirker, OFAI
Idoia Zearreta, EHU
Jean-Claude Martin, LIMSI
Laurence Devillers, LIMSI
Myriam Lamolle, Paris8
Is your name missing from the list? If so, I'm sorry, please
get in
touch! I will send a "consolidated" list of
"experts to invite" to W3C
staff, who will then hopefully contact you about the
formalities.
Best regards,
Marc
PS: If anyone would like to unsubscribe from this list, that
is of
course possible at any time -- see the link called
"unsubscribe" on
