Deliverables

  1. A description of the scope of VIVO and its ontologies in content & quality.  In order to ensure that the scope is well-defined, it might help to collect local ontology extensions from individual implementations and see if there is a common need that VIVO doesn't address.
  2. Develop a process for reporting ontology needs.  Currently there are several places this might be done.  We should have a place that is sufficient for the work and can be shared broadly.
  3. Make two ontology changes (one relatively easy, and one that would require a change in the software) and then deliver a technical plan and a communication plan to support these changes.

  1. I am sorry, this is never a good time for me, it is right when I have to leave the office. One hour earlier would do the trick for me, or I have to rely on Christian to keep me up to date. This week he is on holiday, though. (And I am on holiday on the 31st of July and on the 14th of August.)
