  •  Strand 2: research: how to go from knowledge graph to an index
    • Research decision points, Use cases 
    • First goal: DASH! dashboard (full page for entity) that extends on the idea of an embedded knowledge panel, aim to have functional prototype for end of year

        • Have added "works about" counts
        • Have fixed formatting of items by using bento box display
        • Added display all subjects for map/timeline
        • Discussion of what to do about case with zero work, currently detail page doesn't (can't) show much
        • What is the path of things that should be done before testing?
          • Build out index
          • Use color to differentiate selected vs related in maps/timeline
          • Acknowledge source of images
          • Fix labels on map
          • Fix page title... to "LIBRARY CATALOG" as on other pages
          • Tie features back to testing tasks
  • Discover Affinity Group
    • DAG recordings are going to Drive, problems with ownership and quotas
    • ACTION - Jason & Simeon to talk about LD4 spaces going forward
      • The LD4P2 spaces are the LD4 spaces for now, changing ownership to Michelle should fix problems

Linked-Data Authority Support (WP2)

  • Qa Sinopia Collaboration – Support and evolve QA+cache instance for use with QA
    • 2021-01-22
      • No meeting with Stanford.  Met with Steven and Dave to review the Evaluation of New Indexing Approach project board.  We moved 6 issues into the Under Exploration column.  5 appear to be related to indexing.  2 need review of the tests to determine if they would be expected to pass.  1 required exploration in QA.  For the QA one, the issue was there was an actual line break in the triple which is not supported.  So the question is why Jena produced a triple with a line break.  Is the problem in the source data or should Dave's code change any line break to the proper escape sequence (i.e. `\n`).  The plan is to meet for 30 min once a week either before or after the meeting with Stanford to review the board and work our way through the issues so the new indexing scheme can become production
  •  Cache Containerization Plan - Develop a sustainable solution that others can deploy
    • 2021-01-22
      • Greg has started a new branch for container in ECS. So far ECS will run task, need to work on load balancer config and deal with restart on error/quit. Require ECS service for this
      • Started AWS documentation - in aws templates folder README, need to describe environment file and steps to implement
  • Search API Best Practices for Authoritative Data working group
    • 2021-01-22
      • The group is reviewing the Supporting cataloger inclusion of external authoritative data document.  We will meet on Monday Jan 25 for the final meeting of the first charter.  We will also explore topics for the next charter.  Potential topics:  language processing,  change management, moving user stories to practical and specific recommendations, and triple stores and other technologies.  The next charter will likely start in March to give folks some time off between and me to prepare for the selected topic.
