Francesca,
1. Dividing the work: That would be good. I've been making
additions as I come across attributable definitions. As to getting
things started, they already have and you've contributed to this
start. The real challenge is to complete this first phase.
2. Deadlines: Well, we probably should. I'd proposed 31 December
2012 to complete this first phase that consists of the 'difficult'
terms. Currently there are 27 of these, with a couple being
synonymous (e.g., endurant, continuant).
What has yet to be done is associating the definition(s) with the
applicable domain, if there is one, or indicating the definition
is valid for all domains.
Here a 'domain' is one of those identified in the diagram near the
top of the page.
Thoughts?

I hope you're All doing fine.
I'll try to rephrase my last request, since I couldn't get
direct answers. Maybe the Chairs can help us in this.
1. Do you think we can fairly divide the work among all
Subcommittee members, so to get things started?
2. Would it be ok if we set some tentative deadlines?
Thank you for your time and advice,
best, F.
To the Subcommittee:
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?
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.
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.

way. 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.

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.

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.
