Terminology
by Scott Shorter 05 Nov '16

05 Nov '16

Hello ID Pros, I want to get behind the ideas of a taxonomy and a glossary, and propose that they are two views of the same thing – a high quality glossary should explain how terms interrelate, resulting in a taxonomy of relationships. Contrary to Andrew Hughes’s point about glossaries, not all branching structures are ratholes, some of them are ontologies. I agree with him that it can be challenging to come to consensus but not everything worth doing is easy. Having a jargon is inevitable in any profession, but if we’re trying to be transparent and welcoming, we should document our jargon in some form. Yes, there are existing compilations of terminologies from various industry standards and documents, but they lack coherence of meaning or context, and if they were helpful to newcomers we wouldn’t be having the conversation. A rough work plan for a project would be for members to contribute their favorite lexicons, glossaries and taxonomies, then aggregate, de-duplicate and fill gaps. Aim for a language with which to express the body of knowledge – hopefully with much of the basic knowledge captured in the relationship between the terms. My $0.02USD,  Scott

Responses to meeting 2016-11-02

Hi, just finished enjoying the recordings of the two last meetings (and I really have to say: its a real joy listenig to that), here are my 'cents' to it * I hear a lot about the audience being those who 'implement/ design IDM solutions'. I think we should use the ID-Pro Org to stress the whole industry about the importance (and best practice) to deal with 'digital identities', so to stop developers to implement their own silo of identity data, because its so easy to create an additional table in their database. Identity Management should not be someting 'special', it should have the same standing as 'database technology' within studies. Given that, we should try to get 'buy-in' and support from universities/ 'whatever' in general. So one goal could be to promote those best practices we seek to define to be placed as a 'standard course' within the study of IT. Of course, all courses dealing with that issue (HR, CRM) are stakeholders as well, but in the end, if it is 'digital', 'Developers' will do the job. maybe one of the 'project areas' we could start (named 'Promoting Best Practices on Digital Identity Management'). That would also prevent us from acting on the 'tower of excelence', not being of interest for the 'non ID Professionals' * T. -- WedaCon Informationstechnologien GmbH <http://www.wedacon.net> Thorsten H.
