thank you for your emails. Do you think it would be possible for the chairs to plan deadlines and work division among team members for the first phase? The idea of phases is good…but what are the phases going to be? Perhaps this is our next discussion. It's hard to know where to begin. One thought is to make an informal survey of people in a range of user groups to find out what posed or still poses difficulties for them. Another thought is that we might start with terms a beginner is most likely to come across. We did resolve to include basic terms in the lexicon? I don't think we should spend too much time deciding what terms we will cover in the first phase. It would be good to start work. If there are terms that are especially important, we can work on those in later phases. Also, would it be possible to get more info on the phases mentioned (Todd's last email)? How many of them are you thinking of? Could you provide us with a tentative schedule? Grateful for your indications. Best, F. From: iaoa-education-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [iaoa-education-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] on behalf of Todd J Schneider [todd.schneider@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2012 11:14 PM To: IAOA Education Committee Cc: iaoa-education-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; tjschneider@xxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [iaoa-education] Consolidation of issues Adam, Fabian, Francesca, and all interested members, Sorry for the delay in responding. So here's a proposed (form of a) project plan (that extends Adam's consolidation of issues). Goal: To promote the use of applied ontology by easing the burden of understanding core and common concepts by providing a list of terminology and their interpretations, based on discipline domain (e.g., philosophy, conceptual modeling, logic, representation languages, computation, etc.). And allowing for differences in interpretation (with explanation). Vetting: The list will be made public after being affirmed by the IAOA membership. Scope: Applied Ontology and its contributing or underpinning disciplines along with related areas (e.g., semantic web, logic programming, etc.). Schedule: The terminology/interpretation list will be produced in phases. The result of each phase will be an extension of the previous list that has been affirmed by the IAOA membership. Organization: The lead editors are the chairs of the terminology subcommittee. Discipline Editors/Managers - Each applicable discipline should provide editorial guidance for those terms having an interpretation in their discipline. It should be within their purview to allow or assign editors to individual or sets of terms.

As far as I am concerned (and I would be very surprised if Antony sees this differently), any interested IAOA member is welcome to join the education committee and its subcommittees. Thus, no IAOA member is restricted from participating in the lexicon project. > > Thus, the only choice is whether the discussion within the subcommittee should take place on the general IAOA member list or on some other list. One reason for having specialized committees and associated mailing list is that not everybody in the IAOA is interested in everything that is going on. Thus, it seems obvious to me that we don't want to have a terminology discussion on the IAOA member list, but on a mailing list whose audience is restricted to people who are likely interested in the subject. So either the discussion should happen on a designated mailing list for the subcommittee or it should happen on the education committee list. > > I recommend to continue to use the education committee list, because you will get the benefit of contributions from people who are interested but do not have the time to commit to regular contributions. Frank's email is a good case in point. By the way, all EC council members are on the education mailing list; thus, this is also a way to keep the EC in the loop. > OK, unless there are dissenting opinions, I think we can declare that we have decided to continue to use the education committee list. Unless I am missing it somehow, are there others out there with suggestions about how to proceed? Do we have any specific goals at this point? I will try to add to the proposed list of terms and also see if I can add to definitions. ------------------ Adam M.
