     Things to Do in Formal Concept Analysis

      Abstract. After one third of a century, Formal Concept Analysis still
      exists. Some of the younger researchers in the field were not even born
      when Rudolf Wille’s seminal paper “Restructuring lattice theory: an ap-
      proach based on hierarchies of concepts” was published in 1982. In our
      talk we shall discuss the present status of the field, its strengths and
      weaknesses, and sketch some possibilities for its future. We discuss sev-
      eral potential projects which we find promising, some in the theoretical
      foundations, some for applications, and others concerning the necessary
      philosophical foundations. Our view will be very subjective and hopefully
      controversial. We hope to induce a discussion which makes the research
      potential of the field apparent, and which can inspire new research ac-
      tivities.
