The Gricean maxims are used in some discourse algorithms (e.g. Computational Interpretations of the Gricean Maxims in Gerneration of Referring Expressions). In that field of study, the application of Gricean maxims is known to depend heavily on the discussion context, i.e. the speaker's model of the hearer's model of the conversation. Might it be useful to define that discussion context in this article? If not, is there a better article in which to describe it?
