1. VIVO installation: the vision and requirements 

  • Ralph and Don unsure about whether there was a consensus about war files
  • Andrew working on a PR : if there is an empty VIVO home dir, the war file will populate it ; if it there, but not empty, the war file will change it.Some local instances at Lyrassis are configured to make sure only the rdf files specified get loaded in the db -- but less a matter of technical detail, but vision. All the languages are included in the war file, but only the ones specified in the runtime.properties are loade
  • Andrew : need a consensus on that option.
    • Ralph : agrees
    • Don : what about the non i18n RDF files (abox, tbox) ? Otherwise, sounds good ; would be great for deployment on AWS
    • Benjamin : “all for this”
    • Brian: agrees too.
    • Michel : agrees : that solution is ok for people who just want to install VIVO; not optimal from a dev standpoint ; but as far as UQAM is concerned, we’ll be using our own installer.
    • Huda : “The streamlined approach seems like a good idea.  I do wonder about debugging but that probably means I need to get better versed with debugging content in a .war file. That said, assuming this doesn't prevent download of the source as we normally have done it, but just adds an option for download and deployment, so in that case, anyone who wants to debug and develop the code should be set.”
    • Don and Ralph : discussions about CLI config maneuvers that would no longer be possible in that scenario??
  • Andrew : will move forward, since there seems to be consensus

2. I18n 

  • Tickets needed to be merged
    • Andrew reluctant to merge his own PR
    • Ralph will have a look at it
  • Sprint next week
    • Participants
    • Goals
      • Sacha : still has to test capability map, will test /review fixes, can test installs
      • Rachid Belkouch
      • Nic: will try to fix a few tickets, test events section, review fixes
      • Michel : fix bugs, make more regression tests, make an en_CA release (will need complex retagging in ontologies files -- will open a ticket about it)
      • Andrew : will the Selenium tests will be incremental (several PR instead of a big one?)
        • Michel : shall submit the tests by the end of sprint
      • Andrew : Benjamin has done rudimentary testing of a chinese version ; could it be useful to use it in the i18n testing process?
      • Benjamin : a basic implementation available at …
        • Andrew: what is best option: offering perfect or imperfect version?
        • Benjamin : better to have an imperfect and hope for adopters to install and fine tune it
        • Andrew : possible to make a PR into the i18n branch?
        • Benjamin : yes(?)
      • Andrew: other languages to add? (General “no”.)
      • Brian : will we eventually update lookup for Agrovoc vocabulary? Only available in English. (Andrew: interesting, but for another sprint?)
