WikiCite 2018 - Don Elsborg and John Mark Ockerbloom attending
Per Mike Conlon -- wikidata has no concept of an “authoritative source”
Dec dev call -- Danial Mecham (sp?) from wiki is attending the VIVO dev call
JDK -- per Ralph -- past Jan 2019 - jdk8 no longer supported by Oracle. Next option is JDK 11, since 9 and 10 are not options. Oracle will take over openjdk project and update patches?? ( not sure I heard this right ). So for VIVO we need to dev a policy as to what JDK we support - eg jdk 11 long term. Don - is oracle supporting openjdk Ralph - in a sense yes. Oracle jdk 11 and openjdk 11 should work identicaly except for a couple of minor differences. For 6 months on each release they’ll support patches for both. After that it becomes a leadership thing for openjdk as to how to provide continuing support, for things like security. It does look like Redhat took the lead. Andrew - based on changes Oracle is introducing we should release VIVO against a non-Oracle openJdk.
