Brief Agenda	Chair	Scribe	Room
Hot Topics Context Conduction	Lloyd	Craig	Salon 5 - Bergisches Land

See Context Conduction

Lloyd gave an overview of the Context Conduction Hot Topic.

Context Conduction does not propagate across Roles. Grahame pointed this out as something that is true, but is not documented anywhere. We discussed the need to create a document that describes how Context Conduction, Negation Indicator, Inversion Indicator, and such work.

Grahame expressed concern that even if we were to document context conduction well, it is so complicated that people will still either not use it, or will misuse it.

The current situation is a result of implementing context conduction in a way that allowed for existing semantics to continue, namely, that if context conduction is not specified, the result is indeterminate and left up to business agreement between the sender and receiver.

There was discussion about whether we need a formal notation or just more explanatory text.

Kathleen expressed the need to have information in one CMET preferentially override the same information provided by another CMET.

Action
Assignee(s)	Woody, Mark T., Grahame, Kathleen
Item	We will define the requirements for context conduction and then update the documentation of context conduction on the wiki to describe the current way this is supposed to work. We will compare the requirements to the current state to determine a course for the future.

The Context Conduction Hot Topic has been updated with issues raised during this session.
