- Prep for Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data, https://github.com/ld4p/qa_server/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ADiscogs)
- ON HOLD pending more work in Sinopia to import data. Sinopia work cycle 2 will we hope include the ability to read in RDF back from Trellis. We hope that we can leverage this to import RDF from a lookup in Discogs or ShareVDE
- Expect to start cataloging work on Oct 1, will start with work on things without discogs data pending an update to Sinopia with discogs lookup/load
Enhanced Discovery (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)
- BAM! (to run through end October)
- Updating Initial draft of BAM plan
- Had DOG meeting to discuss meaning and intentions of browse
- One is open ended search like physical browse
- Another is berry picking, finding stepping stones to desired outcome by refining – this seems easier to design for
- Huda plans to do some with with Astrid at Stanford LD-BL meeting
- Tim will extend work connecting in with LOC for subject and perhaps author browse
- John looking at expanding related searches section
- BAM! (to run through end October)
- Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
- Lynette has first stab at response time analysis, typical response from QA is 0.4-0.5s with about half and half between loading data from Dave/parsing graph, and then normalization in QA
- Will look at concurrency next week
- Still investigating speed and concurrency - this is a high priority for Sinopia team
- ISNI discussions stalled – will be interested to see how high this comes out in the prioritization. Given that there isn't an LD API the best approach would likely to be a discogs-like conversion from JSON built into QA serverDave has all of SVDE data loaded
