<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal">A new working group has been formed under the auspices of the Scientific Board to produce, maintain, and update the <a href="https://ddialliance.org/resources/ddi-glossary" target="_blank">DDI Glossary</a> of terms. The DDI Glossary is a resource that users may consult for gaining a better understanding of DDI products. Other standards development efforts produce glossaries for their user communities - an example within the national statistical office community is the <a href="https://statswiki.unece.org/display/hlgbas/Statistical+Metadata+Glossary" target="_blank">UNECE Statistical Metadata Glossary</a>. SDMX maintains a glossary of their terms, too, at <a href="https://sdmx.org/?sdmx_news=sdmx-glossary" target="_blank">SDMX Glossary</a>.<u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">The Glossary Working Group is led by Dan Gillman.
