+=== Technical Committee meetings ===
 The Technical Committee is responsible for organizing the technical work, necessary to reach the general goals defined by the Steering Committee.
-The technical work is essentially based on the definition and processing of Change Proposals (CPs), addressing a problem or limitation of some aspect of the current version of the OntoSPM ontology. This may concern the ontology itself (extension with new entities, deprecation of existing entities, definition or modification of axioms, annotations) or its documentation. CP proposals are discussed at each Technical Committee meeting, and assigned to a volunteer. A solution is then prepared and discussed at a following meeting, and eventually adopted, and the corresponding changes are integrated in the next version of the Ontology.
