    •  Really enjoyed the meeting. I thought the central topic CRM was an extremely interesting ontology. I was fascinated with the thought of using it to annotate the content in a photograph. Not so sure about how useful it would be for subjects that approach abstraction. Perhaps that is something akin to spirituality.
