Updates

  • Colorado
    • Automation Moving Forward - New changes to SPARQLTranslator and ArgList in the VIVO Harvester that allows for the SparqlTranslator’s input models to use a single configuration file (to VIVO) and multiple models.  This paves the way for Colorado cleaning up our configuration files.

    • We will be releasing alongside VIVO 1.6 a new version of the Harvester also versioned 1.6.  I’m hoping to include in this new version

      • SparqlTranslator

      • CSVtoRDF

      • Improved Testing

      • More example scripts

      • A few fixes

    • The pre-build for the VIVO-Vagrant image is complete and now I’m just scripting the startup for script and then we’ll begin testing here and releasing it to the vivo-project on Github.

    • Our new VIVO server is coming along.  We’re readying it to test VIVO 1.6.  Our intent is once 1.6 goes into freeze we’ll run daily tests with our data and processes and contribute back to the community.  The hope is that when 1.6 is released, we’ll also be able to release it to production on our systems.  We’re hoping to rollout our SPARQL Server (perhaps only internally) and a revamped theme at the same time.
