This chapter lists and discusses open challenges for the ODP community in the coming years, both in terms of research questions that will need be answered, and in terms of tooling and infrastructure that will need be developed to increase adoption of ODPs in academia and industry. The chapter is organised into three sections: Section 1 focuses on issues pertaining to the patterns themselves, including understanding their features and qualities, and developing pattern languages and standards. Section 2 concerns the evaluation and development of methods for using, constructing, and extracting ODPs. Finally, Section 3 focuses on tooling and infrastructure development, including Ontology Engineering environments that support pattern use, pattern repository development, and sustainability and versioning issues.
