Please add additional agenda items or updates --
Rethinking VIVO calls
Discussion last week:
- Keep this call but describe it as what it is – a blend of implementation and development; reduce overlap with implementation call so that people focused on implementation don't have to attend both
- Arrange focused calls on topics that might be about either implementation or development, or that bring in experts from related semantic web projects such as Fuseki
- It may be hard for people to justify attending more than one call per week, so be clear on what the topic of each supplementary call would be__
Suggested special topics so far
Effective use of Git
- what's a good workflow as a core developer, and how do you fully integrate with the Git model?
- if on the implementation side, how to contribute
- are we going to use GitFlow?
Extending search functionality
- following on the Griffith Research Hub example of adding additional facets to search results
- building a local version of [as for example when running two instances of VIVO for two campuses of your university, or to link in outside institutions such as the national labs around Boulder for a Colorado research hub
OpenSocial and http://www.orng.info Open Researcher Networking Gadgets
Using the three-tiered build (Vitro + VIVO + your local modifications)
- Colorado's implementation and further work they have done using Git for deployment to test and production servers
- Consideration of whether a three-tiered build would make sense for the ontology
Data ingest using Karma – a guest webinar by Pedro Sekely, Information Sciences Institute, University of Southern California
- Tentatively scheduled for Thursday, February 7, 2013
VIVO custom forms – in two parts, introduction and a walkthrough of modifying an existing form for a new property and/or role
An Environment call – a set of short presentations on VIVO development, test, and production environments
Office hours about adoption questions
Wiki move
Since Jim is on vacation for a few days, we can thank him without embarrassing him in person – it was a lot more work than expected and it's great to be able to continue right where we left off, with some nice new features.
What would help this wiki going forward?
- more use, and more consistent use of tagging
- more navigation
- putting in placeholders for pages that should be there
- encouraging everyone to do some documentation and some correction/updating/removal of older content
Issues?
- speed
- can we be other than the last entry on
- 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
