    • Bruce: ISO 11179 / XMDR will have good input for that
    • Todd: had some use cases posted before -

  • short term activity and action plans
  • OOR sandbox instance - status review - http://oor-01.cim3.net
    • Mike: who is getting the "feedback" from oor-01
      • Peter: don't know ... nice to bring this up on the [oor-dev] list (the Stanford folks could probably tell us, or set something up) ... maybe nice to setup new listservs to capture and archive them openly.
    • Mike: suggest others to load some experimental ontologies for testing
    • for the "sandbox OOR instance", we will not limit submitters to be authors (although it would be nice)
    • Peter: by the time we have the "production OOR instance" we probably need submission policies and, at least, rudimentary gatekeeping policies (as discussed at OntologySummit2008)
    • Kate: consider using Trac with the OOR instance
      • tracking both the repository and its content
      • Ken: we use Trac too (it's a wiki-based issue tracker and built on top of a subversion repository)
      • Mike: the BioPortal may be using the gforge bug tracker

      • K: consider "Semantic Architect"
    • new: 2009.04.03
      • Ken: observation - uploads to OOR sandbox seems to take a long time for a relatively small ontology
      • Ken: we have huge ontologies (up to 0.5GB in size) that we will be dealing with
        • Todd: have the students capture some performace data ... would be of interst
      • Peter: please discuss these things on the [oor-dev] list
    • Mike Dean will reepost some of his suggestions to the [oor-dev] list
