MikeDean: Issues/questions for next week's joint meeting

TerryLongstreth: I will plan to attend next Tuesday

MikeBennett: I probably won't make it a I sometimes have a conflict at this time now.

MikeBennett: Modularity of ontologies - any requirements / constraints on this?

TerryLongstreth: Old business I know but: status/influence of Metadata repository standard (ISO 19763) and New work item 17347?

PeterYim: @Terry - MichaelGruninger and JohnBateman is working rolling out a joint IAOA-OOR-Ontolog mini-series on "Ontology Standards" - a session on ISO 19763 is one of the first ones they'll be featuring. As for ISO 17347, that is very new (just got adopted as a NWI (new work item)during the ISO meeting in Seoul, Korea this June - see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntoIOp - I will email you SueEllenWright's contact, she is the ISO/TC37/SC3 chair, where this work is going to take place.

MikeDean: Like MikeBennett, support for ontologies consisting of multiple modules/files (e.g. NASA SWEET has 200 modules)

MikeDean: How best to support a larger category hierarchy, user-defined categories, etc.

MikeBennett: Standardized use of element-level metadata i.e. the emerging consensus on what terms to use from DC, SKOS and so on; when and whether to add additional element metadata

MikeBennett: Consensus on how precisely to use OWL Annotation Properties for additional element-level metadata (provenance, labeling, additional logical information etc,)

MikeDean: Plans for federation

KenBaclawski: Naming is always a big problem for federated systems. BioPortal assigns database identifiers which is fine for a centralized repository but does not work well for a federated system. We need a more flexible mechanism for assigning names/identifiers.

KenBaclawski: Distributed reasoning capability: reasoning with a combination of ontologies that are not all stored at the same site.

PeterYim: now that we are "branching" instead of "forking" ... since NatashaNoy told us that NCBO was thinking of moving their code repository to git (github, maybe?), we may want to explore how we can best working off a shared repository to facilitate cross-contributions in the future.

PeterYim: how can we best handle support issues ... need support from the BioPortal team - RayFergerson, TrishWhetzel, PaulAlexander, NatashaNoy, et al.


 * Peter: also (for later) should we explore running a shared eclipse development environment for the community?
 * planning and coordination on other upcoming OOR events ... (discussion postponed)
 * Peter: also (for later) should we explore running a shared eclipse development environment for the community?
 * planning and coordination on other upcoming OOR events ... (discussion postponed)

... Notes below are from previous meeting(s), and will be updated as this meeting progresses.


 * status update on the OOR Logo quest
 * Peter: I'm behind on getting the voting mechanism in place, will work on it within this coming week
 * will allow multiple votes from each voter, to be split between their choices
 * Review status: the upgraded OOR_SandBox - http://sandbox.oor.net/ontologies
 * for now certain behaviors seem strange - Ken and Mike will look into the issues
 * Ken: a lot of it is with the disabling of some hard coded portions (like the swf codes) now
 * "visualize" not working now ... Ken will try re-enabling access to U of Victoria (which serves the visualization)
 * updating "categories"
 * Peter: the ICOM people suggests adding the categories of "standards" and "collaboration" (the latter probably belongs under "Cultural"
 * Mike: something like Dublin Core should go under "metadata" - we are adding this category, "process" too
 * discussed - see updated "category" list at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2011_08_05#nid2W6B
 * one can select multiple categories by doing a "ctrl-click" (or "cmd" for Mac users)
 * Ken: the software stores "categories" in an OMV ontology, and support a hierarchy of nested categories
 * Mike: there is a GUI interface for adding categories
 * All: we probably want to leave it simple (one level) and support "addition of categories" on demand
 * Todd: For some categories, e.g., science, subcategories will be needed. Since the provided listing is linear, subcategories could be listed as pairs or triples: Science, Science - Biology, Science-Physics, Science-Physics-Gravitation, etc.
 * Leo: we might consider adopting some standard categorization, like what the Library of Congress has put out (maybe not the entire hierarchy, but only the very upper level(s)
 * soliciting content (ask people to upload their ontologies again)
 * we will put out a note to [oor-forum] when we are ready ... i.e.
 * updated categories are up
 * we clearly know what we'll be doing ref. the dual-track approach (see discussion below)
 * Discussion: the newly adopted dual-track OOR approach
 * action planning
 * we run (for now) 2 instances - a sandbox instance[1] on the OOR-01 vm, and an experimental instance[2] on the OOR-02 vm
 * [1] this will be a straight forward, and updated BioPortal code install, with customization only for: the logo, the IP / License statement, categories.
 * [2] this will be the instance we use to continue the current work of further development in Architecture, API, metadata, CL support, etc.
 * consensus: both instances would use the same database (so ontologies uploaded are accessible by both instances, and are obviously "in sync" ... saving us the need to "import" as we ad discussed at the last meeting)
 * Peter: the next things to push is to have "gatekeeping" in place so we can stand up a "production" OOR
 * scheduling meeting with the NCBO team
 * candidate dates Sep-20 or 27 Tuesdays 8:30am PT ... Peter will ping MarkMusen et al.
 * OOR or joint OOR events planning, for the Fall and beyond
 * Revisiting regular meeting time (day-of-week, and starting-time)

(unless specifically addressed) items below are from the previous meeting(s) and will be updated as we proceed with this meeting.


 * Status and action review: upgrade to OOR-sandbox - http://oor-01.cim3.net or http://sandbox.oor.net
 * workplan (from previous calls):
 * update codebase to appropriate oor install code
 * customize banner/logo
 * customize IPR statement
 * re-establish categories - ref. [[MikeDean]'s input]
 * other?
 * installation - ETA of updated OOR (v ? )
 * prepare vm image
 * vm image available for download - ETA
 * TimDarr offer to help, some from his team of 8~10 people might get involved, most of the necessary skill sets in java programming, linux sysadmin, vmware, etc. are available
 * (from 2011.05.06) ref input from PaulAlexander, BioPortal is now delivered as an "appliance" - in a vm image
 * the NCBO folks uses the VMware platform for their virtual machine
 * we are currently using (at CIM3) Xen virtual machine for the OOR-sandbox
 * MikeDean: there are utilities that help convert between VMware and Xen vm images
 * Anyhow, we need to install from the code - code from the semwebcentral oor code repository
 * it is suggested that a conf call between us and the Stanford folks (with, say, TejasParikh, KenBaclawski, MikeDean with PaulAlexander, AlexSkrenchuk, ...) be done ASAP so that we can learn from them they key changes in the recent versions and how the installation is different now [ Ken will arrange ]


 * Category list (based on MikeDean's list): (updated 2011.08.05)
 * Upper Ontologies
 * Standards (for example, Measurement)
 * Science (for example, Biomedical)
 * Financial
 * Government
 * Cultural (for example, Social Networking, People)
 * Geospatial
 * Commercial
 * Literature
 * Technology
 * Provenance
 * Defence
 * Metadata (for example, OMV, Dublin Core)
 * Process (for example, PSL)
 * Other


 * Status and action review: OOR-dev box - http://oor-02.cim3.net


 * OOR Logo - ref. OOR_Logo_Candidates - updated process (ref. previous process)


 * Getting us to a stage when members can contribute code ... how, ETA?
 * (discussion 2011.05.06):
 * an adopted Architecture & API is definitely crucial, but that's not all
 * All team members are encouraged to mull over how we can get to that state effectively
 * in particular ... how do we make this a "successful" community-driven, open source project!?
 * (discussion 2011.06.03)'' ...


 * getting the OOR code repository at semwebcentral started (for real!) - http://oor.semwebcentral.org/
 * OOR_SandBox - http://sandbox.oor.net/ontologies (previously http://oor-01.cim3.net/ontologies)
 * OOR code-repository and re-assessing the 'fork' (what does that mean?) [MikeDean, KenBaclawski, et al.]
 * 2011.02.18 / KenBaclawski - have sent question to PaulAlexander about it
 * categories - ref. MikeDean's msg - http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/oor-dev/2011-02/msg00012.html
 * 2011.02.18: *Important Note* - we will start afresh on the OOR sandbox content (i.e. uploaded ontologies) after the update install - everyone who has uploaded ontologies so far should note
 * those who are "using" the OOR sandbox content now, should note down the ontologies they need, and may need to contact the authors to upload them again if they don't show up. (presumably, those content relating to biomedicine, previously federated from BioPortal, will not be there any more, at least not automatically.) Also, links to ontologies or elements within ontologies established previously will no longer be valid after the content gets re-populated - Ken will make a post about this on [oor-forum]
 * workplan:
 * update codebase to appropriate oor install code
 * The consensus is that we should use a uniform language in each component to make it easier for people to contribute code and add extensions.
 * customize banner/logo
 * customize IPR statement
 * re-establish categories - ref. [[MikeDean]'s input]
 * other?
 * installation - ETA of updated OOR (v ? )
 * prepare vm image
 * vm image available for download - ETA
 * TimDarr offer to help, some from his team of 8~10 people might get involved, most of the necessary skill sets in java programming, linux sysadmin, vmware, etc. are available


 * Getting us to a stage when we can run a OOR-production box ... what's still needed, ETA?
 * (discussion 2011.06.03)'' ...
