[11:39] MikeBennett: Infrastructure
[11:39] MikeBennett: The bridge is definitely gone
[11:39] MikeBennett: Mailing list is OK with OVGU
[11:39] MikeBennett: Other resources - Ken is funding some of this, needs a long term funding resolution
[11:40] MikeBennett: Specifically, the wiki is funded by Ken (this is on Digital Ocean)
[11:41] MikeBennett: The ontologforum.org and other domains also have annual domain renewal fees.
[11:41] MikeBennett: Mike will aim to reconvene the BoT this week or next week.
[11:41] MikeBennett: Other items:
[11:42] MikeBennett: The Repository (the one for all the documents on the wiki) is hosted at Amazon S3.
[11:43] MikeBennett: Peter is still apparently doing a thing. This would be the archive of all the old stuff, which is still not fully moved over to the Amazon repository
[11:44] MikeBennett: There are still links in the rest of the world, to Peter's original domain, which sometimes resolves and sometimes doesn't. Hence the need for Amazon to store this material.
[11:45] MikeBennett: Similarly, useful resource pages, not all of which we knew were there, are still hosted on cim3.
[11:45] MikeBennett: For instance:
[11:45] MikeBennett: Edu:Term List
[11:46] MikeBennett: These will eventually be brought into the new wiki but this process takes time.
[11:46] MikeBennett: There is code that Ken has to help with that.
[11:47] MikeBennett: MediaWiki is the tool we are using now, but it lacks direct access to the database which limits what you can do. So Ken has written a service which addresses that issue.
[11:47] AndreaWesterinen: I am part of the education committee.
[11:48] AndreaWesterinen: That is where the ontology terminology is.
[11:49] MikeBennett: So, does the Education committee need access to any of the services we were talking about above?
[11:49] MikeBennett: We also need to be able to update the page linked above.
[11:52] AndreaWesterinen: Edu:Term_List
[11:54] MikeBennett: This means that the Education Committee pages do not need to be migrated to Ken's wiki structures, though it would be helpful to have a link from there.
[11:54] MikeBennett: Meanwhile we would benefit from better integration among the IAOA resources.
[11:55] MikeBennett: Also the Wikipedia pages about IAOA need to be more proactively managed.
[11:55] MikeBennett: This could also fall to the Education Committee, who meet this Wednesday/
[11:57] MikeBennett: There are also new terms that are needed, that came up on Nicola's most recent course (co-presented with Giancarlo). These are in a paper that the 2 of them are working on.
[11:57] MikeBennett: Things like Sortal. Some are on the EC website and some are not.
[11:59] MikeBennett: so this goes into deep concepts that need to be modeled, as well as the usage of high level terms like Ontology and been "Notion"
[12:01] MikeBennett: We still have no clear picture of what the infrastructure actually is. Need to make is explicit.
[12:02] MikeBennett: This all needs to be written on a page somewhere.
[12:02] KenBaclawski: SWAO:Procedures
[12:03] KenBaclawski: http://ontologforum.org/index.php?title=Procedures&oldid=22303#hid4
[12:04] MikeBennett: It merits a separate page for what it takes to make the actual things exist. For example where is ontologforum.org actually running (Digital Ocean)); who knows it (Ken) and so on.
[12:05] AndreaWesterinen: But OntologyForum is not = IAOA.
[12:09] MikeBennett: Ontolog Forum BoT will be 4th. 12:30 Eastern Time (normal Ontolog slot).
[12:17] AndreaWesterinen: http://www.ninepts.com/solutions/tools/ontograph/
[12:25] AndreaWesterinen: Note that my other paper will arrive by next Monday.
[12:27] MikeBennett: Blog - no time right now.
[12:27] MikeBennett: AoB?
[12:27] MikeBennett: Adjourn
