It was developed by a team of terminologists over about two years, and is intended to assist a translator or writer who must deal with a document on this subject but who does not understand the subject. It represents a comprehensive assessment of all the important terms in this field. This ontology has been a low priority background task of mine for about five years. Over the years, it has changed many times. It has been used mainly to help me understand some of these issues better, and a number of students have used it as a starting point when building a small kb.
