Calls are held every Thursday at 1 pm eastern daylight time (GMT-5) – convert to your time at http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com
These calls now use WebEx – see the "Call-in Information" at the bottom of this page.
Please add additional agenda items or updates --
Updates
- Stony Brook
- how to share common vocabularies – how to collaborate on this and where to host/store the data
- Jon suggesting extending a service like the UMLS service built at Stony Brook – does such a list exist; if not, where would be put it; how would you access it
According to http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/wa-datasets/ the British government posted research funding datasets online as RDF data. Tammy is currently checking to see if the US has posted any such data.
- Florida
- Updated to VIVO 1.5.1, but having re-index errors and mailing list thread hasn't been resolved... discussed on call... possible root cause is bad data in MySQL evidenced by repeated errors in logs...
- Weill
- Cleaning up the publication data
- Working to improve performance. Plan on increasing the database cache. So far we have increased the MySQL Query_cache_size to 64M. Do we need more? What's the cache size for other sites?
- Matt at UF: were looking at query_cache_size also – what is optimal (versus restarting Tomcat)?
- Tammy: Running the MySQLTuner script on our system, made the recommendation "Variables to adjust: query_cache_size (> 32M)". (Note that everybody's system may be different.)
- UCSF
- Updating to VIVO-compatible version of Profiles, but converting data is time consuming
- Duke
- Available on campus
- Loading pub data in batches using Elements, faculty can edit changes and trigger individual refreshes from VIVO
- Cornell
- Jim working on building a non-Tomcat specific .WAR file, supporting both VIVO and Solr web apps
- DataStaR user interface test results being reviewed, also see http://datastar-test.library.cornell.edu/datastarimls/
Colorado
- Minor release v1.1 of third tier build, releasing to v1.5.1 UCCS in production also new data with modified ingest Selenium script
- Penn
- concerns about performance issues when there's a lot of simultaneous editing, which might have been addressed by Tim at Brown – try to get an update on this
- NYU –
- Johns Hopkins –
- Indiana --
- Brown –
- other
Community approach to discussing new ideas
- Mailing list versus weekly calls versus Wiki versus JIRA versus IdeaScale (also GitHub repos, Issues, wikis, etc)
- Discuss ideas on mailing list and weekly calls?
- Todos and tasks on JIRA?
- Capture notes and research on wiki?
- Use IdeaScale's voting to prioritize? (you can also vote in JIRA)
- What path is available if you have a problem, and can start working on the solution? Is there a shortcut to contributing?
Notable development list traffic
- Check list traffic for last week
