ontology - document on the wiki the data model terminology

In order to understand each other, we must define clearly what we are dealing with:

What's a(n):

• entity
• project
• source
• origin
• etc...

And document this somewhere outside of the data model, the wiki seems like the right place for now.

added 2016-06-30 General priority:High labels

changed title from Ontology to Ontology - Define common terminology

changed the description

changed title from Ontology - Define common terminology to ontology - document on the wiki the data model terminology

added priority:Normal label and removed priority:High label

there is now a page on the WG wiki to do this: https://wg.softwareheritage.org/index.php?title=Glossary

once the main wiki is open to the public, it should probably be moved there

We need at least a draft of the glossary in good shape before the grand opening. Remember to do this on: https://wg.softwareheritage.org/index.php?title=Glossary

Since swh/infra/sysadm-environment#385 (closed) has been closed, the Glossary page is at https://wiki.softwareheritage.org/index.php?title=Glossary.

I've started expanding the glossary a bit. We certainly need to add more terms.

added state:wip label

I've reviewed @olasd entries and completed some more. I've also standardized how we add common information to terms, e.g. "Examples:" sections, or "Also known as:" and "Note:".

I quite like the current content of that page. We will certainly need to add more in the future, but I think this is a pretty decent status already.

@rdicosmo: do you agree? can we close this task and consider it done for the upcoming launch? If not: what is missing that you consider blocking for the launch?

Still missing quite a few entries but the foundations are there, so Ok for closing this.... it will grow by itself now
