Meeting Updates (ISWC BOF, WWW2008) - Susie

Susie: ISWC BOF appeared to go well.

Susie: Not much of an update on WWW2008

Susie: workshop proposal accepted for WWW2008
... we could have a special BMC Bioinformatics issue with a selection of workshop papers

Susie: Alan submitted a tutorial proposal - still waiting to hear back on that
... we should keep our eyes peeled for events where we can spread the word about HCLS activities

Knowledgebase extensions - Alan

Alan: adding primitives to the database to make SPARUL queries

<alanr> Adriane is adding primitives to PROVA

Susie: Adrian would be interested in hearing updates about people's day jobs
... What do others think of this?

<alanr> +1

Alan/Susie: it would probably work out generally better for people with academic jobs

Jonathan: Taking on advice on how to credit people (see above URL)

Susie: It would be nice to put out information on W3C's semantic web activities pages in addition to HCLS pages

Jonathan: Some files that have been loaded in the triple store are tarballs, some are OWL RDF/XML.

Kei: Should we try to release some files separately?
... There are some people that might want to perform their own conversion and want access to the relational tables.

Susie: It sounds like SenseLab and similar data would want to release data in tabular format from their own websites.

URI note - Jonathan

Susie: Anything new on the URI note?

Jonathan: Took a small vacation from that. Still digesting extensive discussion with Michel Dumontier.

Susie: Jonathan has been elected to TAG.

Clinical data set assessment - All

Susie: next meeting, skip next week?

Alan/Olivier: Can't make Dec. 3

Alan: What should we attempt to do before the end of the charter?

Susie: Would like to consolidate KB and make progress on URI note

Alan: Is it possible to talk about the SenseLab format next week?

Kei: Will look into availability of Matthias and Louise

<jar> susie, please put doc process url into the chat

Alan: What are the document format requirements and who will do it
... I think that if we can get some editing help..
