Although I was regrettably unable to attend, I have been closely following the outcomes and I'm particularly interested in the effort to enhance the website with clear definitions of terms related to reproducibility, a terminology.

It's nice to read about your enthusiasm!

> As a person deeply invested in reproducibility for work and personal purposes, I am keen on contributing to this initiative. I believe that establishing formal definitions is not only critical for our collective understanding but also serves as a beacon for the academic community and those new to the concept, guiding them towards a standardized comprehension of reproducibility.

agreed.

However, before I proceed further, I would like to know whether any of you have already worked on formulating such a definition. Collaboration or alignment with existing efforts would be more productive than working in isolation.

are you aware of https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/definition/ ? :)

please absolutly share your draft on this list! It's always good to be able
to look at things from different perspectives, and you'll surely add another! :)
