Agenda

Old Business

• Previous meeting notes - Approved!
• Islandora 7.x-1.7 Release - Release is moving along well. Auditors and Testers are going. RC went out last week.
• New LSAP proposal: Islandora Ontologies

Background

Publishing available predicates is a good idea, and having an Ontology document is the best way to get to shared definitions of predicates. Nick identified all of the predicates he could and is auditing changes again now. Nick put them all into ontology following https://github.com/fcrepo4/ontology - this comes comes with an .xsl that transforms ontology into a human readable document. Because Nick cribbed heavily from the Fedora ontology, he followed Apache 2 license (license of original ontology).

Challenges

Keeping this in sync with the codebase - aligning islandora.ca published document with what exists in the codebase. There's a few tricks that could be made to make this automated, but right now it is updated by Paul and Donald. Currently if people want to suggest changes, they could submit a JIRA ticket against the ontology (which has been set up as a component).

Understanding how changes and definitions come from the code and into the ontology - involved discussion about this.

Outcome

Update readme to indicate procedure for adding terms/syncing codebase and ontolgoy. Nick will be maintainer. Work toward automation, and additional issues/development tasks could be submitted as tickets. Any submitted tickets will be reviewed this in the next meeting before vote.

Not everything fits perfectly into the LSAP template for a readme- for example, Drupal Filter, CiteProc, Islandora IA Bookreader and a couple of additional components <--put on next week's agenda

• Metadata IG (Jennifer) The Metadata IG meet earlier this week. The meeting notes can be found at: https://github.com/islandora-interest-groups/Islandora-Metadata-Interest-Group/blob/master/Meetings/Agenda10.md. We welcomed Amanda Lehman as the new co-convener of the group. The group's new format of integrating a discussion was successful. Amanda led a discussion on the Duraspace book club. Next month Jennifer will lead a discussion on migration tools and tools for reviewing metadata followed by Martha Tenney on how their institution is customizing the manuscript solution pack. In the round table, we learned also how Barnard is developing an Islandora Solr Content Type used to display repository content based on a content type and sparql queries.
