Agenda & Notes

Review actions from 2019-07-26 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)
  • https://github.com/LD4P/sinopia_editor/pull/1119 – allow context parameter pass through to QA
  • And https://github.com/LD4P/sinopia_editor/pull/1125 – context in type-ahead
  • then need discussion with Sinopia team about context modal interaction
• Tim Worrall and Steven Folsom  to try the load tab with data from Discogs and an appropriate template
  • 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 profiles.
• 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:
  • Overall Project Board

Status updates and planning

• 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
    • Scenarios/Data doc:
    • Slides working through scenarios (to inform/be used as mockups)
    • Added links to readme to provide easier access to important documents
    • Tasks for KPAOW demo https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/issues/6
    • Huda has mockups and need to buy candy bars and do the testing
    • Work 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. 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-whole
