  • Overview on UML diagrams of BioPortal systems
    • see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OpenOntologyRepository_Architecture#nid1XRD
    • Todd: UML diagrams generated by "Enterprise Architect" ... will be posting the full set ...
    • Misha: the diagrams are complete; slightly difficult to read now -- some parts not 'relevant' to BioPortal could be removed to make it more readable; with the new update, a lot of changes coming in anyway as an ontology is being used
      • Misha will help provide a list of the 'relevent' subset of classes
    • Benjamin: MDA?
      • ... Todd: probably stick with UML now, and eventually move to CL?
    • Peter / Todd: will add revision level onto the diagrams in the future ... the ones from before, we'll add a date for identification purposes
    • Peter: Misha Dorf suggested a full UML diagram and a highlight diagram ... guess Todd is working on them (haven't heard from him yet)
  • Potential for collaboration with the geospatial ontology folks - Nancy Wiegand / GaryBergCross
    • Nancy: intro; SOCoP - submitting a grant proposal to NSF again; possibility of using OOR for their work
    • Gary: intro - SOCoP secretary; use of ontology repository for interoperability, social aspect of sharing;
    • Mike: welcome the collaboration; probably some additional features needed to support geospatial ontologies
      • Nancy: how much development is expected?
    • K: how much data will be involved .. using data.gov?
      • Gary: possibly using some USGS data (K: which is already linked to data.gov)
    • Nancy: supporting data store ... or just ontologies
    • Todd: OOR not supposed to provide data store ... but can consider a extension project to work on
    • Nancy: is the infrastructure stable ... and expected to be around for many years?
      • Mike: the intent is "Yes!"
    • Gary: Nancy is the PI; proposal due in July;
    • Ken: already has a grant ... can share some of the language used ... Nancy will contact Ken
