OpenOntologyRepository: OOR Team Conference Call - Fri 2010-10-29

Since we have some new people on the call, we took inventory on where things stand with the OOR project, and planned out one more panel session "(Post-BioPortal fork) OOR Architecture and API - Take-II" to explore more options and continue discussion on the subject.

... Please refer also to the notes from the last regular meeting at: OOR/ConferenceCall 2010_10_01 and the three recent pertinent sessions:

... note, in particular, the start time of this meeting is three hours earlier than before (9:00am, rather than 12:00noon EDT)

[06:03] Alessandro Adamou: hi, do you read me

[06:04] KimViljanen: hello!

[06:16] KimViljanen: http://www.onki.fi

[06:40] KimViljanen: Mathieu: should we organize a OOR Workshop to ESWC? (just read the call for workshops)

[06:41] Mathieu Daquin: Kim, would be a good idea, however I already know that I won't be at ESWC 2010...

[06:41] Mathieu Daquin: s/2010/2011

[06:44] KimViljanen: not sure if I'm either, but I'm sure that can be arranged

[06:45] Mathieu Daquin: I suspect that a new edition of ORES focusing on OOR would be welcome

[06:46] Mathieu Daquin: I would of course support that, not sure I could contribute much in terms of organization though

[06:47] KimViljanen: based on the amount of participants, I think there would be interest for such WS

[07:06] KimViljanen: I and Jouni will discuss the funding coordination issue with our researcher leader, prof. Eero Hyvnen

[07:07] KimViljanen: are we discussing permanent funding or project funding?

[07:09] Alessandro Adamou: i enqueue for my question too

[07:14] KimViljanen: :) (I must get a mic for the next meeting.)

[07:25] Ken Baclawski: Kim: The current focus is on project funding rather than permanent funding.

Since the OOR is intended to be a federated rather than a centralized system, presumably

sustainability of OOR instances would be the responsibility of the communities served.
