Working with terminologies is shown in the figure below:

Where:

INGEST

is a stage that contains contents of various kinds that authors can produce even if they have have limited or no technical working knowledge, such as your average business person, lawyer, etc. The kinds of contents that authors may submit would be limited to a set of predefined (markdown) document templates, with or without a header construct (as e.g. in Docusaurus). Any submission of a certain kind (template) will be processed according to the mechanisms specified for that template, unless the input cannot be processed (invalid input). The output of such processing typically is content that is added to the CURATE state, but other outputs could be created if that is beneficial.

...

• the kinds of document templates that authors may use to submit contents;
• for each of such kinds: the criterion for determining whether or not it valid for further processing;
• the specification of such processing, i.e. what parts of the contents go where in the curate stage (or elsewhere).
• ,,,

CURATE

is a stage that contains all sorts of typed, normalized contents. 'Normalized' means that there is no duplication of content, and all content can be identified by a single identifier. 'Typed' means that files may contain different contents, e.g. a description of a concept, the definition of a term, etc.

Versioning needs to be discussed. While from a tech perspective it is beneficial to use github commits as a version, this may not be suitable for authors that want to refer to an element in the Corpus.

PRODUCE

is a stage in which all sorts of documentary artifacts are being created/generated/... We expect to see this stage produce glossaries in various renderings (web, pdf, ...), dumps of (parts of) the Corpus (e.g. a JSON or XML file), etc. The CTWG will cater for a minimal set of artifacts to be produced, such as a ToIP Dictionary, and a default glossary of terms for every owner. Depending on the needs we encounter, other artifacts may also be produced. Specifically, we expect one or two artifacts to be produced that allow third parties to do further processing on the contents of the Corpus. While the production of such artifacts is within CTWG scope, the further processing is an external responsibility.
