terminology

There does not seem to be a uniformity in our posters' use of terms to describe the different keys and other mechanical features on the oboe. For example, at different times, "first finger" can mean the thumb, as on the piano, or the index finger. Some of the disparity in terminology may come from different countries. Would someone (Chris P?) like to offer a system of referring to the keys, etc., so that we can better communicate with one another about mechanical features of the oboe?
