Agenda

The main topics are concerned with infrastructure support and management as these need to be migrated from their current hosts mostly by the end of this month. We also need to plan the community session to be held next Thurday.

  • Ontolog Community Wiki
    • Cloud hosting. Disadvantage is the cost.
      • Digital Ocean. Cost would be about $5 to $10/month.
      • AWS. Cost is comparable to Digital Ocean although somewhat higher.
    • Donated hosting. May have lower reliability than the cloud, and requires a sponsor.
    • Other suggestions...
  • Maintenance of the Wiki and repository
    • Single volunteer at any one time.
    • Group of volunteers.
  • Conference Bridge Service
    • Skype is free but has a 25-caller limit.
    • Google Hangout is free but has a 15-caller limit.
    • Free conference services have a 1000-caller capacity, but require long-distance calls. They are not callable from Skype.
    • ITS2 conference service is $67 to $97/month, depending on the number of callers. Cost per year would be $900 to $1000. This is callable from Skype.
      • This is the current service. It is provided by Peter Yim until the end of June.
      • At a typical meeting, nearly all callers from out of the US use Skype and around 1/3 from within the US use Skype.
  • Ontolog Archive
    • Peter Yim will support read-only access to the current resources.
    • Mirroring would be desirable.
  • Ontolog Forum (discussion forum/mailing list)
    • Need to maintain a repository, possibly mirrored.
    • There are open source tools, such as GNU MailMan.
    • Need a volunteer or volunteers to manage it.
  • Plan for the Community Session to be held next week: 2014_06_26 - Thursday: "ONTOLOG Going Forward" - the new ONTOLOG_BoardOfTrustees meets the Community - ref. details at: http://ontolog-02.cim3.net/wiki/Conference_2014_06_26
