  • Qa Sinopia Collaboration – Support and evolve QA+cache instance for use with QA
    • 2020-12-04 Working on creating issues for all remaining work on new indexing approach.  Started in Uber issue (Issue #383).  Addressed 2 issues in QA 
    • 2020-12-04 Dave's indexing accuracy for tests: Dave thinks it is better across the board; Lynette building comparison into UI, currently manual process. Some conversations around this are happening in Slack – moving that documentation into Issues to allow for post-fact review. Performance is consistently better – issues is ensuring that accuracy is consistently better... and assessing why if not. Analysis up to this point was primarily for LoC... now doing analysis for all authorities. Users tend to ask more of QA than they ask of other tools that already exist (e.g.: when search id.loc or OCLC, there is a lot of paging.. but in user requests for QA, expectation is that desired result is within first few). OCLC also has weight that accounts for frequency of use
  •  Cache Containerization Plan - Develop a sustainable solution that others can deploy
    • 2020-12-04 : nothing this week
  • Search API Best Practices for Authoritative Data working group 
    • 2020-12-04 Met this week; had one provider user story that took the whole time: "I want to provide human readable primary label"; some do not have preflabel and do not want to assign one – and this is challenging since the label is all tied up into language. could spin another working group on language... as language complicates many of the user stories (e.g.: do you tag language, do you provide based on browser settings for users, how do you query for particular languages, etc.). One solution seen: instead of semantically defining a preflabel, will have all labels treated equally using rdfs:label but use schema:label for preferred (i.e.: a distinct property that can be queried but does not specify preference). Want to aim to a solution that is language agnostic/symmetric ... have to work for situation where we do not know preference of users. Working group is nearing end of charter. Looking at user study as public facing document and then look to recharter for other work not yet done.
