Agenda and Notes


  1. Consensual Items

                  A.Complete multilingual interface (making

...

English a language as others)

      1. Graham agrees and argues that we need to address the string in the rdf. There may be issues in loading

      2. We need a proof of concept taking all known issues related to the item to implement (taking out english)

      3. Ralph : maybe it is better to just start the work and see as the work moves forward the issues and solve them

      4. Areas of focus

        1. language-tagged content

        2. strings in freemarker and jsp templates

        3. strings in the code, itself

        4. strings in the ontology, labels etc

                  B.Documentation on the release policy of language related artifacts

      1. Andrew: By default any VIVO release is dependant on languages project. So the languages supported on the listed

      2. Ralph : Keeping the process simple to start. Release the language as we release VIVO

      3. Graham : What happen when someone completes it’s translation  before or after a VIVO release ?

      4. Kitio: We can have a simple release process that triggers community feedback to improve the translation by bootstrapping

      5. Ralph : We can have a wording according to the level of support of a language

      6. Ralph and Andrew: Separate the concern : extract the strings Then think how we simplify language support

      1. Ralph: Use ISO flags for the languages

      2. Kitio: This is maybe too political issue
