  • Cohort
    • Proposals under review. To be decided by 10 September, we think; interested to know more about applicants.
  • Authority Lookups for Sandbox (Production QA instance: https://github.com/cul-it/qa_server/issues/)
    • samvera/questioning authority (QA) is preparing for release pending merge of CORS header support and Rails 5.1 support.  LD4P/qa_server uses the min_context branch of QA and was updated to include everything that will be in the new release of QA.
    • LD4P/qa_server was updated to be an engine instead of an app.  Remaining work is to bring the history work into the new engine.  It's in a branch now, but needs testing to be sure it is working as expected.
    • cul-it/qa_server was a fork of ld4l-labs/qa_server.  It has been detached and is now stand alone.  Remaining work is to convert it to be a simple app that gets all its functionality from the LD4P/qa_server engine.
    • vocabulary support:  There is a list of vocabularies that includes 8 vocabularies we already support.  3 substantial vocabularies that we should work on supporting.  And 32 smaller vocabularies from id.loc.gov/vocabulary.  I believe that all/most/some of these are currently filled using id.loc.gov/suggest API for autocomplete.  Should these 32 smaller vocabularies be supported through QA or remain using suggest API?  Are there UI considerations?
    • Priorities QA: update lookup.ld4l.org to use engine, keeping historical data, logging of use, then finish refactoring, then performance and/or new authorities (hope to get clarity on Sinopia call regarding needed/prioritized authorities; Steven to try out template idea with LCMPT, Lynette suggests doing this in https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server)
  • Enhanced Discovery
    • Planning Tue 2018-09-19 meeting with D&A, 11am. – all will attend
    • Discussion of discovery work plan from Tom Cramer. Will respond suggestion getting Tim involved in all aspects, Steven particularly in knowledge card and future browse and semantic search
  • Prep for Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data)
    • Application Profiles
      • In mid-to-late September, Steven, Tracey and Jason will start planning for Sinatra BFE profile. Hip Hop SHACL was for 78s... Sinatra will be 45s... HipHop used bibliotek-o.
      • Question: whether we want to help out with Art & Rare Materials BF Ontology Extension profile to ensure that others are facilitated...?
    • Discogs data / API
      • Reviewed output from discogs last week. 
      • Thinking about how to implement a supervised reconciliation through searching Discogs. Not sure how much effort this would be to implement in BFE or other system. Open question of how much parallel there might be with other reconciliation/Import from external sources from, say, Share-VDE
      • Would be good to discuss ideas in the partner meeting in October
  • Travel and meetings – what meetings should be be present at between now and end June 2019?
