Hi, sorry to go all English on you,
I'm the primary author of the Process Model article, and would like to make a few clarifications. First, see the additional
explanation of the relationship between the Exploration of a Concept and the Exploration of an Entity.
Then, on the specific points:
As we intend it, Exploration of a Premise is a subpart of the Exploration of a Concept. For example, I don't think the study of the effects of the existance of psionics through role-playing would qualify as exploring a premise ~ Forgean narrativism, but it is included in our definition of the Exploration of a Concept.
As for the relationship between Exploration as defined in the Big Model and our two Explorations, I don't think they are orthogonally related. In the Big Model, Exploration is almost synonymous with the act of role-playing itself, and the five focuses of exploration are possible focuses in the act of roleplaying, components of it, holding a similar position as that of the Processes, Methods, Circumstances and Results do in our model. This differs significantly from our use of the word. In our terminology, exploring something is more closer to studying something.

ps. You can just continue on speaking German even if you want me to understand, I can understand but not speak the language fluently enough to try.
pps. I just have to say, the synopsis in the earlier thread and this conversation have been the most enlightened and informed talk concerning the model that I have had the pleasure to witness.
ppps. It's nice to see that also in Germany there are people who sit outside both of the Forge and the Nordic roleplaying cliques, comprehending and parsing the best of both worlds.
