Agenda

1. Updates 
   1. from China
      1. Discussions with Mark Musen
      2. Discussions with Stefan Decker
   2. Other updates
2. Use of XMLLiteral and VIVO-1528
   1. https://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-concepts/#section-html
3. Priorities for the ontology
   1. Modules, for example clinical trials, identifiers
   2. Cleaning, for example, adding definitions, providing super Classes, removing/replacing singletons, DOI definition as URL
   3. Internationalization, labels (and annotations?) in multiple languages
   4. Adding new terms/modules, for example, humanities

      1. Jira
         server DuraSpace JIRA serverId c815ca92-fd23-34c2-8fe3-956808caf8c5 key VIVO-1089

         1. https://github.com/OIT-ADS-Web/duke_vivo_ontologies
   5. Improving modeling, for example vcard, academic degrees, organizations, relationships
   6. Alignments, for example schema.org
4. Versioning: We should publish a release now and start to improve the ontology from there. Questions:
   1. SemVer?
   2. Review and release processes
   3. Documentation
5. ... additional items here ...

Notes

1. Updates:
   
   1. China
   2. Mike tries to get control about the entry in Bioportal: https://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/VIVO
   3. Schema.org is not an ontology, more use in VIVO is appreciated.

2. Regarding use of XMLLiteral.  vivo.owl currently has 220 datatype properties.  They have ranges tabulated below:

   Count	Range
   160	None
   34	xsd:string
   14	xsd:anyURI
   4	xsd:dateTime
   3	xsd:boolean
   3	xsd:int
   1	xsd:date

   Here's the query I ran (using robot on vivo.owl in the released version)

   Code Block
   PREFIX owl: <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> SELECT (count(DISTINCT ?s) AS ?nrange) ?r WHERE { ?s a owl:DatatypeProperty . OPTIONAL { ?s rdfs:label ?l } OPTIONAL { ?s rdfs:range ?r } } GROUP BY ?r ORDER BY DESC(?nrange)

   
   

3. Following discussion the group recommends the use of rdf:HTML as range on datatype properties that require HTML editing.  All other datatype property ranges (including no ranges) are edited using a plain text edit editor. It appears that 4 datatype properties (vivo:overview, vivo:teachingOverview, vivo:researchOverview) should have range specified as rdf:HTML.
4. Priorities
