The plan is to devote one meeting a month to intense coding (or other low level development) work. Session page: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_06_25 Attendees: TillMossakowski (co-chair), KenBaclawski (co-chair), BobSmith, OliverKutz, PeterYim, ToddSchneider. == Proceedings == [07:11] KenBaclawski: please point your browsers to the Ontohub-OOR API working document (google-doc) - at: http://tinyurl.com/onto-arch [07:19] TillMossakowski: We do not require the API to be minimal, but a minimal set of methods shall be identified. Derived methods can be implemented in terms of the minimal set; a reference implementation will show how to do this. [07:20] TillMossakowski: We will include also the methods from BioPortal not being in the OORService API [07:21] TillMossakowski: The API should not be specific to any kind of ontology framework. [07:26] TillMossakowski: the method delivering all ontology latest version is take from the BioPortal API: http://www.bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/BioPortal_REST_services [7:31] TillMossakowski: Ken: what about "latest draft version" vs. "latest released version"? [7:34] KenBaclawski: The API should incorporate the branching of a software repository service such as git. [7:35] TillMossakowski: we should incorporate some aspects of the git API, involving repositories and branches [7:36] TillMossakowski: Peter: ontologies provide a richer structure (classes, attributes, modules) than files in a file system [7:42] KenBaclawski: Each ontology has a URI and it follows linked data principles. [7:45] PeterYim: ref. consensus from our Jun-18 OOR-Strategy meeting - we will focused on developing three things (hopefully within the next 3 months): the set of metadata, the API, and some shared thoughts on the UI - see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_06_18#nid3UE6 [7:56] KenBaclawski: The method for retrieving symbols and sentences should have a filter parameter.
