Summary:
For visibility outside OMG I think we should be registering all our ontologies which I think may require a few extra items of metadata as here https://lov.linkeddata.es/Recommendations_Vocabulary_Design.pdf such as Dublin Core terms title and description (we have label and abstract), (date) issued and modified, and for elements, rdfs:comment (we have the more specific skos:definition). I think most of these could be added via automated script (e.g. Each skos:definition also becomes a rdfs:comment).

Disposition Summary:
Add additional metadata for external ontology registration
Resolving this issue requires agreement on the list of additional annotations needed to support registration of our ontologies in external systems. The LOD community, for example, while widely used for a combination of ontology and vocabulary registration, suggests use of annotations that are in vocabularies that are no longer maintained or that include embedded, viral references to vocabularies that are either no longer maintained or that are not allowed for use on various government or commercial systems.
In other words, more research is needed, and agreement on the set of annotations and criteria for determining such a list, as well as which target repos we want to propose inclusion of OMG ontologies in, should be determined with consensus of, for example, the OMG AB.
