The charter includes this within its initial scope statement: Web Payments terminology: Identify and review existing terminology that has been established by a variety of international organizations and standards. This includes e.g. UNCITRAL terminology, World Bank Terminology, ISO20022 or ISO29115. Adopt, refine or extend existing terminology(ies) to cover needs identified in new use-cases or scenarios Somewhere within the charter document, explicitly declare production and maintenance of a deliverable, authoritatively versioned, normative glossary of recommended and deprecated terminology as a goal and purpose of the working group. This goal may be considered implied within "Adopt, refine or extend" but those seem to this reviewer to be insufficiently explicit internal-facing verbs. This Official Glossary would be a third deliverable, with a success criteria of references made to it in other documentation. Claiming maintenance of The Official Glossary would give the WG a permanent focus and reason to exist, and afford opportunities to reward volunteers with intrinsically amusing debate on word choice as well as glory of authoritative recognition. Thank you
