Dear All,    (01)


We had a very productive meeting  today. Full proceedings of the
session are now available
under: 
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_06_18#nid3U6O    (02)

In particular ...    (03)

1. it has been confirmed that we will move the regular OOR conference
calls 1.5-Hrs earlier - regular call start-time (effective from the
next meeting) will be: Tuesdays 7:00am PDT / 10:00am EDT / 4:00pm CEST
/ 3:00pm BST / 1400 UTC ... please note.    (04)

2. there is general consensus we would change to a more bottom-up
approach (rather than the "top-down" approach we have been taking) ...    (05)

* we will encourage each oor node project to develop (colore, ontohub,
socop, oor public instance, etc.) on their own, and coordinate the
"team" effort through the use of a shared set of metadata, API and the
UI (e.g. how people download (or even upload) ontologies, etc.)    (06)

* The key is to ensure that each of the ontology repository projects
in OOR are interoperable from the software perspective, uniform in the
GUI, and they use a shared approach to ontology metadata    (07)

* initially (prior to federation mechanisms being in place) we will
make <oor.net> to be an ontology registry, which then links to the
ontologies in the actual ontology repository where the ontology is
described    (08)

* actions will be focused on developing three things (hopefully within
the next 3 months): the set of metadata, the API, and some shared
thoughts on the UI    (09)

* after that, we will focus on building up content with each OOR node
tackling the domain(s) they are best with, and put in a concerted
effort towards OOR adoption    (010)

3. Note that we will be having our first Hackathon session next
Tuesday. This will be a regular event for the OOR team, as we are
planning to to devote one meeting a month to intense coding (or other
low level development) work. Next Tuesday's session:
//
Session Topic: The "OOR-Ontohub-Gatekeeper API" Hackathon    (011)

Session Co-chairs: TillMossakowski & KenBaclawski    (012)

Date: Tuesday, 25-Jun-2013
Start Time: 7:00am PDT / 10:00am EDT / 4:00pm CEST / 3:00pm BST / 1400 UTC
Expected Call Duration: 1.5~2.0 hours
//    (013)

3a. Till & Ken: the skeletal session page is already up. Please edit
and fill in the details - see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2013_06_25    (014)


Talk to you all then!    (015)
