      • Mike Dean: their are utilities they help convert between VMware and Xen vm images
    • Anyhow, we need to install from the code - code from the semwebcentral oor code repository
    • it is suggested that a conf call between us and the Stanford folks (with, say, Tejas Parikh, Ken Baclawski, Mike Dean with Paul Alexander, AlexSkrenchuk, ...) be done ASAP so that we can learn from them they key changes in the recent versions and how the installation is different now [ Ken will arrange ]
    • (discussion 2011.06.03) ...
    • an interim install for the SOCoP Vocamp in Washington DC - ref.

4. Member activities updates:

items below are from the previous meeting(s) and will be updated as we proceed with this meeting.

  • getting the OOR code repository at semwebcentral started (for real!) - http://oor.semwebcentral.org/
    • OOR_SandBox - http://sandbox.oor.net/ontologies (previously http://oor-01.cim3.net/ontologies)
    • OOR code-repository and re-assessing the 'fork' (what does that mean?) [MikeDean, Ken Baclawski, et al.]
    • categories - ref. MikeDean's msg - http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/oor-dev/2011-02/msg00012.html
    • 2011.02.18: *Important Note* - we will start afresh on the OOR sandbox content (i.e. uploaded ontologies) after the update install - everyone who has uploaded ontologies so far should note
      • those who are "using" the OOR sandbox content now, should note down the ontologies they need, and may need to contact the authors to upload them again if they don't show up. (presumably, those content relating to biomedicine, previously federated from BioPortal, will not be there any more, at least not automatically.) Also, links to ontologies or elements within ontologies established previously will no longer be valid after the content gets re-populated - Ken will make a post about this on [oor-forum]
    • workplan:
      • update codebase to appropriate oor install code
        • The consensus is that we should use a uniform language in each component to make it easier for people to contribute code and add extensions.
        • customize banner/logo
        • customize IPR statement
        • re-establish categories - ref. MikeDean's input
        • other?

    • Todd Schneider may not be able to attend, but will support the planning and organizing work to put this together
    • this should be a workshop, rather than a panel discussion - we want to walk out of this meeting with decisions on the OOR Architecture, API and (default) Development Platform, so people can start contributing code right after.
