After more days of notebook content gathering, a bigger amount of post-its allowed to **define sub-categories** to the first basic classification scheme. Some categories where restructured when balance in the content would change with the growing number of post-its. | After more days of notebook content gathering, a bigger amount of post-its allowed to **define sub-categories** to the first basic classification scheme.

- | ===Practical FoAM2013 Table=== | + | As more post-its were added to the wall, **further sub-categories** where created, some **specific contents** were highlighted by being put on post-its with different colors. The final result of the post-it classification looked like the following picture - where you can only see the classification of the Metabolhomics category. |

- | > Processing language: essential key words and essential anti-key words. | + | Post-its have mainly been used as precursors of mindmaps. Post-its are quite handy because they - theoretically - can be re-positionned several times and still stick to the surface. When dealing with large amounts of content to classify, I think that post-its are handy for three reasons: |
+ | - You get physical with your ideas | ||
+ | - You are able to do and undo classification schemes in very intuitive and quick way | ||
+ | | ||
+ | However, as you do not want to archive your wall forever with the right classification, | ||
+ | ===Mindmaps=== | ||
+ | Thanks to the freeware version of [[http:// | ||

+ | I kept almost exactly the same organization than on my wall, and obtained, for instance, the two following maps: | ||

+ | |||
+ | The content may look a bit cryptic to you, but I promise I can understand myself better than with the post-its :) | ||
+ | |||
+ | In addition to these mindmaps which define project strategy from high- to low- level content, I created a workbook for more practical sutff. Logically, I called it " | ||

+ | - A **General Objectives List**, where I write down things [[http:// | ||
+ | - A **Short-Term To-Do List**, where I write down short-term tasks I want to achieve in the following days. | ||
+ | - A **Reading/ | ||
+ | - An **Exploration List**, complementary to the previous one, where I write down names and keywords about topics I found interesting, | ||
+ | - A **Connected Projects List**, where I list projects I feel are connected to Metabolhomics and the general spirit of this Transiency. | ||
+ | - A **People I Should Connect With List**, where I list... people I should connect with. | ||
+ | - A **Diffusion List**, where I start to list contacts of people interested with my work, and to whom I should send some kind of newsletter. | ||
+ | - A **Questions List**, where I list the topic I would like to adress during my regular meetings with FoAM's Core Team members. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This workbook articulates day-to-day Project Management elements like the Short-Term To-Do List with more global Project Definition elements, like the General Objectives list. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Scheduling==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The next task is to produce a schedule of activities, showing how they will articulate until the end of the year. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Right now, the schedule is pretty rough, as it only cuts the whole Transiency in two main phases. | ||
+ | - The ***Definition phase (November-March)***, | ||
+ | - The ***Implementation phase (April-November)***, | ||
+ | |||
+ | A more detailed schedule is currently under construction. | ||
