TNO is preparing a game that is provisionally called "Concept Quest", which is a variant on "I spy with my eye...". They will be looking for guinea-pigs to play the game and provide feedback in terms of (a) all sorts of experiences and (b) concrete suggestions for improvements of the rules. They expect there will be different versions, e.g. one for people that need to learn what criteria are all about, another one for people that want a game to result in really good definitions, and perhaps another one for those that also want to create documentation around such definitions.
Henk van Cann shared that the ACDC group has changed from Algolia as a search engine to TypeSense because the latter has a much better invoicing system. it is the only way (apart from using Google) to index an arbitrary amount of data for searching for specific terms — especially for their level of understanding.
ACTION: Judith Fleenor, Henk van Cann, and Andor Kesselman to develop recommendations for sustainable GitHub maintenance, including definitions of the skills and roles needed and how a ToIP GitHub Support Group should be formed and maintained.
ACTION: Judith Fleenor find a way to help Brian Richter and his team with the EasyCLA issue to that it does not become a blocker for the use of the TEv2 tool.
There has been no ctwg-tools-dev meeting today, due to holiday in CA. It has been rescheduled to Wednesday evening (PT)/Thursday morning (CEST). On TNO side, there is some work being done on TRRT, which is going to be used internally to see if everything works as expected, and then it will be integrated with the MRGT (which I hope will be up and running again soon with the hi-prio bugs fixed). This are slowly progressing...

Report on Terminology Design Workshop for the Trust Spanning Protocol TF
The workshop was held on May 3. Since it was an interactive workshop, we did not keep detailed notes, however see the Meeting Notes page for screenshots and a link to the recording. The term we worked on during the workshop was "trust spanning".
One particular quote from the Zoom chat:
Rieks Joosten: "criterion: a text that everyone can evaluate to determine whether or not something is an instance/example of a particular concept. Evaluation leads to a yes/no result."
Rieks explained that it was an experiment for TNO in several ways, so it was just a first test. A few conclusions from this first test:
The organizers should take more control of the term(s) being chosen for discussion at the outset ("trust spanning" was too complex).
"Trust" and "appraisability" are similarly challenging concepts.
Such workshops seem to work differently within TNO than at ToIP — this is something the design team is currently reflecting on.

#1: provisional mental model that explains conceptual model from a cognitive science perspective. Note that subclasses of 'semantic unit' include concepts, relations between concepts, and properties of concepts.
#2: provisional mental model that extends #1 and explains what is needed for people to understand each other in the context of a collaboration. Note that 'Symbol' has been replaced by 'Term', and that a 'Criterion' has been added.
