Agenda & Notes

Review actions from 2019-07-19 26 Cornell LD4P2 Meeting notes

  • Huda Khan will continue work on draft PR to add context in Sinopia lookups and seek run it past Michelle & Jeremy, goal is to get this ready for cohort before Sinopia is released at the end of work cycle 4 (end July)
  • Tim Worrall and Steven Folsom  to try the load tab with data from Discogs and an appropriate template
    • Troubleshooting distance b/t profiles created and new target based on Sinopia changes. Sinopia has narrowed amount of BF profile spec used and expanded in other areas... have to abide by those rules or error prevents loading profile. Refactoring profiles. Tim took resource template with only a title... and tried to load N3 into it; nothing happened when submit hit - javascript error generated.
    • When work on title resource template, there are 4 different fields to enter (e.g.: main title, subtitle, etc...): entered data into all fields and hit preview RDF - has an empty node for subject... and isGeneratedBy. Seems to be reverting in its functionality...
    • Huda: end of next week, should have a better sense of what is working... likely/scheduled to be end of work cycle 1
    • Haven't learnt about loading of data because blocked by template problem
    • Steven spent this week refactoring profiles (see Slack discussions...) and some load, some don't. Parsing of profiles is strict, with no useful debugging information. Others share these problems creating profilesDue to changes, work now by LC to create Sinopia-compliant LC Profiles. Michelle recommended waiting for this. We are not waiting for this for as that would entail extra effort.
  • Steven Folsom  will complete a first-pass on Sinatra profile complete with one full day of work (COB Monday, 7/29); there will be many concessions (cannot create a different form experience based on the type of entity for which the form exists - second pass, not first). 
    • See above, one full day of work ha ha ha!
  • Jason Kovari Jason to contact Michelle re: is loading RDF from external source via QA. really a thing in September? 
    • Michelle has been out this week
  • Jason Kovari will start draft Kaleidoscope article (continuation of the LD4P MWG update). Deadline sometime before mid-August, let's say 8/10
    • DONE and submitted
  • Simeon Warner to speak with Dave to better understand his capacity
    • Pending Simeon's return
  • Jason Kovari will speak to Michelle to ask her to manage the prioritization process for authorities
    • Michelle has been out this week
  •  Issues:

...

  • Prep for Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data, https://github.com/ld4p/qa_server/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ADiscogs)
    • ON HOLD pending more work in Sinopia to import data. Sinopia work through work cycle 4 will include the ability to read in RDF back from Trellis. We hope that we can leverage this to import RDF from a lookup in Discogs or ShareVDE
  • Enhanced Discovery (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)

    • KPAOW plan: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XuXH9n1YOhZY9cJhalA6ceTjOSpJrCsveoRgZyAUfwc/edit
    • Huda did some evaluations on Monday, with too much candy. Looking at markups for Lincoln examples – worked with 5 people for almost half an hour each, generally positive results, will write up a report
    • John has been out this week but did some work on search queries to check whether there are useful results so we can tell what to show
    • Tim has been looking at catalog vs Discogs. Impressed by how much is already in the catalog. Have found that wikidata does have discogs ids for works, we might be able to get to wikidata based on this id. Note that catalog records typically have the record producer's catalog ids and this can be a connection with Discogs data. Tracey might be able to point of under-described music items in the catalog to see what the opportunities to find extra data might be has mockups and need to buy candy bars and do the testingWork Area video: John, Tim and Huda will make a video – informal walk-thru of the functionality. Whomever would like to engage, talk to Huda. Tim is out.
  • Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
    • Dave loading all of the SHARE-VDE data to DAVÉ rather than focusing on only the institutions planning to use S-VDE data – 5 institutions have data available from SVDE, 1 (Frick) has data . Perhaps confirm with Dave. If so, voting process would be ignored by S-VDE. Outside of S-VDE, all requests are valid but we lack capacity to complete all. Prioritization should be under the program as-a-wholeloaded in DAVE and now Lynette has to create config for these. Plan is to have an authority for each institution; use CKB to search across institutions (don't think DAVE has this data to load yet; maybe Stanford/Boulder/Alberta projects will rely on this)
      • E. Lynette Rayle will work on config for Frick early next week so that Stanford can test, also hope to get n3 export (below)
    • Issue https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/162 is about getting n3 from QA to be imported into Sinopia (a different format from JSON or JSON-LD) - need to understand what data to get from SVDE and what profile to import into
    • Lynette has created uber issue for LC authorities that are nearly there: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/161 – want to get a number of these smaller issues done before dealing with the many new issues being created
    • Currently prioritizing LC and SVDE authorities pending further input from Michelle re cohort priorities
