  • can we have a search that by default is limited
  • can we block search of the old wiki, so that Google over time points only to the new one
    • can put a meta element on each page – on the page template, perhaps?
  • do we all have permission to edit

Updates

  • – (Eliza) – working to improve the performance of the site, by exploring Memcached and Squid. Brian Caruso is working with a dump of the database to see if he can replicate some of the performance issues on a server. Otherwise getting feedback from a small pilot group of faculty members to try out the site and get feedback – responses so far are saying something different, but people have not interacted with the forms that much yet.
  • UCSF – (Eric) – last week mentioned Elda on this call, and are using for RDF to JSON conversion but the way they do it is different than the standard JSON-LD – do we have any personal contacts at Elda? (no) – will try to make a contact
  • Penn – (John Mark) – trying to make sure the site can handle a big onslaught of editors when launch – separating MySQL. Florida is using replication of the Amazon RDS database to support a public sparql endpoint.  Also trying 1.5.1 with some of the visualizations turned off.  Noticed that in some of the list views, things get put at the end in outdented form – most likely the inferences did not happen because the process was interrupted. At Weill, will say "research article" but manual triggering of inferences by making a change that forces inferences to be computed for that individual.  Brian – may be pushing some of the inference processing until after the ingest is completed to try and finish the ingest; in 1.4 there was a tradeoff where it would take longer to get the data ingested and show the new assertions, but complete the inferencing; now in 1.5 the inferencing happens after the new assertions.
  • NYU – (Yin) – excited about the  move to GitHub and has forked a copy of the code to start entering in his changes for the search. There are so many different branch versions – 1.5.1 stable? Stephen – best to work off of Master. Develop is where the features that are finished are committed to. Can look for the 1.5.1 tag for the maintenance release and cherry pick a later commit into his version if necessary. Master will become version 1.6.  Yin doesn't have changes yet to commit back, but will likely have some in the future – the rewriting of the ranking algorithms.  At that time, there's a way to refresh from develop and create a pull request against the develop branch.
  • Stony Brook – (Erich) – two accomplishments recently, in a 2nd VIVO implementation for Stony Brook alone and trying to make it cover the full campus by next April to replace a Lotus Notes product called Faculty Addendum.  Were able to hook this to CAS authentication using a module from Rob Fox at Notre Dame.  In meetings around campus around where can share the VIVO data around campus.  Are investigating adding WebID capability, the public key portion, to VIVO so can become an identity provider as well for verification by a remote authentication  service? The goal is to be able to provide WebID for authentication in other web applications elsewhere, and to build up on a grass roots basis the provision of WebID so that more sites accept it for authentication. Work is underway to link WebID and OpenID.

...

  • Performance issues at Brown with self-editing presentations – update on whether Tim's improved sparql queries solved the problem
  • Strange behavior when editing ORCID ids and Scopus ids, and a workaround
  • Deploying VIVO with Git
  • Building with Ant WAR
  • VIVO/MySQL deploymentImage Issue with 1.5.1 VIVO

Still pending

  • map of science and temporal graph visualizations – Chin Hua from the visualization team at Indiana University wrote to say he is working on another project but will get back to improving the visualization caching work in December
