- Colorado (Stephen & Alex) -- working on sparql endpoint, on visualizations with node.js; will be updating the code to download search results as CSV
- Cornell (Jim, Jon, Brian and Tim) -- working on the caching, including support for caching when there’s multiple languages in use. Brian is committing pieces to support the Integrated Semantic Framework (ISF) ontology -- main infrastructure should be in place soon so can start building out the infrastructure
- the beta version of ISF is due out by the end of next week
- Duke (Richard) -- some feedback and small data changes coming in since the go-live last week. Curious as to how far along VIVO is to using a “real” triple store back end instead of a relational database? Brian -- we have to decide at some future date whether to switch the default -- you can hook VIVO up to other triple stores now. Melbourne is using an Oracle store with a Sesame, for example. Our ability to connect to other triple stores is experimental to the extent that our testing has not identified a recommended candidate; he would be happy to help with configuration changes.
Jim notes that we have some models that still use RDB and cannot easily be moved to a different triple store. They’re small and can easily be loaded into memory -- user accounts and the display model
Richard -- Senior IT management is interested in linked open data, and another group is interested in ontology work around sharing data warehouse. See the W3C RDF Data Cube Vocabulary and a description of its purposes and usage
Alex -- Simon’s (Melbourne) was interested in getting data managed in Oracle so that he could use it with an Oracle Apex application -- that has an application building interface that he likes
- Florida (Nicholas) -- will be reworking their HR ingest process to help prevent duplicates; anticipate writing new code in Python
- Stony Brook (Erich) – working full throttle on the WebID implementation -- want to demo a working prototype in August
- UCSF (Eric) – had a good surprise earlier this week when found had another adopter of OpenSocial gadget stuff at Baylor, using Profiles -- loading gadgets and running in production; took it as a good sign that Baylor could adopt and implement without needing help
- Eric is getting ready to do a Profiles release with gadgets and will then come back to updating VIVO
Baylor seems to have a gadget for users to verify that a publication is correct; Stanford forces verification before it shows up, but Baylor and others are willing to go ahead and show publications until they are rejected. This gadget seems to offer the interface for review and then shows when a publication has been verified by the author
- Weill Cornell (Paul) – did a first round of ingest of citation counts from Scopus
- a question to raise -- if use Harvester to bring in single publications, is there any way I can take that publication URI and queue those up for re-indexing and re-inferencing?
- see notes in VIVO v1.6 release planning
