Agenda
- Updates from MW-FUG
- Kevin, Andrew, Michigan, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Art Institute of Chicago in attendance.
- Logistics were challenging to allow a full suite of attendees. The result was a tighter, more advanced group that enabled good discussion.
- Michigan in advanced state. For example, they have advanced the Java client. It would be nice to funnel their work back to community.
- Who is attending Code4Lib L.A. next week?
- Esme, Longshou, Danny, Andrew, Mike, others attending. Perhaps meet up later in the week.
- Two related workshops - Import/Export, Performance.
- How are Islandora and Hydra clients using LDP-RS ETags?
- Ben P. updating Java client to be in line with Fedora 4.7.1. Weak ETags have returned to RDF sources. Build these into Java client? Not sure.
- Hydra - there is an existing ticket to implement using If-Modifier-Since (Esme). Would cover vast majority of use cases, but may fail in some cases involving multiple sychronous updates.
- Hydra is using If-Unmodified-Since, since 11/21/2016: https://github.com/projecthydra/ldp/commit/36520b2a78744f0610d75702384330c43bbf8e21
- CLAW - not sure what is going on in this area. They wanted to use ETags, but are not due to ETag issues. In current version of CLAW, using an identifier instead. Not sure what they will do long term.
- Outstanding issues on Fedora API Specification
- Three of these issues just need relatively simple pull requests.
- Some of these issues need better clarity, specifically in numbering and referencing. The document is difficult to follow, especially for those new to the discussion.
- Recent change in document - there is now a permalink next to every header, which should be used for referencing.
- Andrew - Getting resolution in this spec is currently the highest priority item in the community. Need more community input and review to move things forward.
- Esme - For many items, all of the options seemed reasonable. Difficult to pick one approach over another.
- Updates/Next steps for Fedora API Adopters Guide (previous meeting notes)
- Coding opportunities for aligning Fedora implementation with specification
- Michael Durbin : Interested in testing migration of Fedora 3 PIDs?
- Opportunity to attend Southern Miss IR conference and represent Fedora
- CfP for SEMANTiCS conference in September
- Opportunities for contribution: low-hanging bugs to be fixed
- For your pleasure: Drastic/CNI presentation video
