  1. Review open action items

Minutes

  • Chris provided overview of “clean-up related” updates to IOF Core ontologyfirst provided a brief update on various “clean-up” items he is making to IOF Core before he publishes it to GitHub and starts the review cycle.

  • We then talked again about the workflow and usage of Jira to manage projects resumed discussions on the proposed workflow configuration in Jira for managing projects, and some of the issues we are having with the tool. We reviewed a “template” for entering tasks, issues and the various “task types” that Will had created and is prototyping in the MT Connect working group. Serm voiced concerns of not introducing too many tasks types, at least initially as we implement task and issue tracking in Jira. William Sobel offered to take on the action item to setup the same workflow for IOF Core as exists for MT Connect. Chris Will will prototype the recommended workflow (and template usage) for creating and managing issues raised review cycle of IOF Core term definitions. Chris Will took on the additional action item to document more detailed instructions for raising issues against terms and how the logistics for this will work, as he gets ready to launch as soon as he starts the IOF Core review cycle. We all agreed that the workflow for TOB review and approval of recommendations from the working groups, remains a to-do.

  1. In our review of action items from the prior meetings, the relevant discussion points are as follows:

    1. Concerning Ontology Source & Artifact Management on GitHub, eventually the plan is to automate much of the validation that is needed when ontology files are committed back to GitHub (automation we plan to achieve with Jenkins). For now, we’ll do this manually. Elisa will compile provide us a subset of SPARQL validation queries from the set FIBO uses, that she feels would be the high priority ones the IOF should consider using in IOF’s initial releases. Chris tohttps://oagiscore.atlassian.net/browse/DRMP-6?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiZDNkMmYxY2RjYWM5NDg1YThlOTBmOGIwYWRjMmJjYzYiLCJwIjoiaiJ9

    2. As far as establishing an IOF account on GitHub: one choice is for the IOF to utilize OAGi’s existing account on GitHub, and another, our preferred choice, would be to establish our own account. Will noted that the latter option involves a monthly fee starting around $25, and is likely not a tactical option until we charge IOF membership fees or get grant funding. Serm will reach out to Jim to explore the first option https://oagiscore.atlassian.net/browse/DRMP-8. Will also mentioned that with the first option, we have the undesirable effect of intermingling repository information across both IOF and OAGi.

    3. As far as GitHub usage requirements, we discussed the need for both private and public repositories, with the private facing one used for pre-release work, and the public for released versions ontologies. William Sobelto https://oagiscore.atlassian.net/browse/DRMP-4 for the use of GitHub in the next 3 weeks – both the private repositories by the working groups and the public-facing one for released versions . It would appear that many of the working groups have managed GitHub accounts and would be or have already established private repositories (e.g., Maintenance WG). Chris will send out an email to the other chairs to see who has this capability. We would obviously utilize this in lieu of sharing an account with OAGi.

  2. We reviewed the provisional Candidate Term Definition Review Procedure that was recently introduced at one of the IOF Core meetings. Feedback included:

    1. Farhad asked whether who will create the structure in Jira to enable the raising and tracking of issues raised against a term. I indicated this would be done in a just-in-time manner as issues are raised for a term. Chris to take on the action item of detailing this and placing it on the page describing the procedurehttps://oagiscore.atlassian.net/browse/DRMP-9.

    2. We discussed how notifications would be handled – as in do we notify all IOF Members or only the selected “Core Reviewers.” I suggested that an invitation to participate in the review process would be sent to all IOF members, but that the details of managing the formalization of and issues raised against a term, would involve the “Core Reviewers” and any other IOF members that subscribe to updates from the Jira project where we manage the IOF Core term issues. Chris to .

    3. On the topic of notification, Dusan took a way an action item to ask Jim and the TOB how we should deal with group notifications by email under the new OAGi arrangement. For now, we will continue to use Google Groups.

  3. On agenda topic #3, Chris took on the action item to https://oagiscore.atlassian.net/browse/DRMP-7
