"winter dormancy"

I don't have any plants that require a winter dormancy, but I was just wondering what exactly that means in terms of watering. There seem to be several posts out there from people whose plants were dying because they completely stopped watering or misted infrequently so only the surface of the medium was marginally moist (I guess that works for some Catasetinae but not for most others)... so how exactly do you water during that time period? Around the edges of the pot?
