&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;= [[OntologySummit2007|Ontology Summit 2007]]: [[OntologySummit2007_Process]] proposal-1 (draft)  =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First proposed: [[PeterYim|Peter P. Yim]] / 2007.02.14 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== A 5-Step Process  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Convener Grouping:''' Summit participants (&amp;quot;conveners&amp;quot;) are dispersed into 'teams' (constituencies[http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft1#nidU6C [1]]), each representing major communities within the broader ontology community space &lt;br /&gt;
** we can use a survey[http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft1#nidU6D [2]] to help identify which team an individual participant is affiliated with &lt;br /&gt;
** an analysis of the survey results can also provide clues as to whether we have balanced representation in different constituencies, and if not, remedial 'recruitment' actions may be taken &lt;br /&gt;
** a participant can choose to be in more than one team &lt;br /&gt;
** each team is encourage to elect a champion to help coordinate and track progress (this is optional, though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Understanding the Community Vocabulary:''' Each constituency will: &lt;br /&gt;
** identify the context (vantage point) from which their inputs are derived; there may be needs to create further subdivisions. (For example: if &amp;quot;Biomedical informatics practitioners&amp;quot; is one such constituency, and it turns out that that the &amp;quot;bio-informaticists&amp;quot; and the medical-informaticists&amp;quot; don't share the same vocabularies, then they may want to subdivide and collect inputs for each of these sub-teams. &lt;br /&gt;
** (each team) or each sub-team will come up with the gloss for what do they mean when they use the term &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
** identify other ontology-related terms that is in their constituency's common vocabulary, &lt;br /&gt;
*** and come up with the gloss for each of these terms &lt;br /&gt;
*** also assess the Likelihood that someone may refer to each of these terms as &amp;quot;ontology&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
**** ( 0 = totally unlikely; 5 = some would; 9 = almost always ) &lt;br /&gt;
** identify conspicuous ontology (or ontology-like) artifacts[http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft1#nidU6E [3]] within their constituency &lt;br /&gt;
** the above is discovered through dialog over the [ontology-summit] discussion forum, aided (where necessary) by the survey[http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft1#nidU6D [2]] and continuously summarized and synthesized and posted to the wiki to keep all participants in sync. &lt;br /&gt;
** each constituency will complete and vet their glossary and list of ontology (or ontology-like) artifacts &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Constructing a categorization / typology framework'''[http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2007_Process/Draft1#nidU6J [4]] &lt;br /&gt;
** this is done between all coneveners &lt;br /&gt;
** and done in parallel with the virtual discourse described in 2. above &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Categorize''' &lt;br /&gt;
** place terms and artifacts into the above categorization framework (by each constituency) &lt;br /&gt;
** reach shared understanding on typology &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Authoring the Communique''' &lt;br /&gt;
** draft &lt;br /&gt;
** review, modify, enhance &lt;br /&gt;
** adopt (with list of endorsers) &lt;br /&gt;
** release / publish &lt;br /&gt;
