  • CSML
    • not developed in isolation.
      • conformance to emerging best practice
    • DECISIONS
      • all new engineering on csml2.0 should be finished by pre-beta
      • new developments
        • processing affordance
        • GML 3.2
        • swath, profileCollection
        • storage descriptor moving to own namespace
        • composite domain pattern (remove WHY WHY WHY)
        • respect standards and autogeneration tools
      • what is CSML
        • Core set of base types
        • trivially derived FTs
        • schemas
        • tooling
          • parser
          • scanner
            • cf-compliant netcdf specific
          • api: basic services
      • Care in evolution
        • bodc should be able to do it from sql to python code
        • nocs may need to transform csml1 to csml2 to avoid rereading entire archive
    • Need to consider the relationship of delivery service CSML and content at all data providers
      • How do we plan to deliver qxf files to the consumer of csml files
        • qxf read methods
  • MOLES
    • Decisions
      • MOLES is an INTERNAL NDG format
      • Main reason for existence
        • provide common interface for producing D
          • content for exporting DIF, ISO19139
        • Provides tool for NAVIGATION
      • Moles should NOT be a profile of ISO19139
        • Internal information storage should not be driven by external standards
      • Needs to be easier to modify, and extend by adding external schema
      • Needs the "coathanger" functionality.
        • three types
          • import content as is
          • link to content
          • import content rendered by this service
    • Major Priorities
      • Sort out Granules
        • cross over with CSML
      • Sort out SpatialTemporal? Descriptoin
        • are bounding boxes sorted
      • Schema for Stub-B
        • no explicit catering for big deployments etc
      • Add Coathanger Functionality
        • specifiy mechanism
          • includes what is being hung off
        • to which nodes
      • Add ISO19139 export
        • which profiles
        • do we have the content?
        • need code
      • UML model of existing MOLES
      • Documentation, Documentation, Documentaiton
  • xlink pattern issue
    • transport mechanism
    • uri
    • file type
    • insert or load
    • role in moles and csml
    • server side subsetting, how to put in the uri
    • xlink
      • roile
      • arcrole
  • Services
    • Discovery
      • ISO191309 import
        • browse/discovery view
        • import of spatio/temporal into backend complex database
      • Role of OpenSearch?
      • Role of OGC Catalogue Services
      • Greg Read having an IOC WMO profile meeting in September in Phillidelphia
      • Z39.50 gateway
  • Security
    • evolving to more standards compliance
    • Java coding
  • AHM
    • One free person (registration paid for)
    • Michael and Helen
    • Mike
      • on holiday?
  • Meetings Needed
    • Need a bbftp, delivery service, csml discussion, then talk about dx/wXs
    • Code Review meeting
    • BInary Image Format Meeting
  • Issues to trac
    • Who owns BBFTP
    • vocab.ndg.nerc.ac.uk
    • Browse
      • history should include D
      • xml rendering/printing clarity needed
    • WG issue: how to manage role mapping as things change in data providers
      • can we use the vocab server for role publication
      • can the aa check whether they have changed
    • How can we limit discovery searches to specific sites ...
    • Should Moles creation tools be externally facing?
    • What advice would one starting from scratch?
      • database configuratoins
      • dataset/datagranule decisions, reasons, and limitations
      • clear guidance needed for use of csml docs (e.g. can cope with 10,000 files)
    • Automatic population of OAI repository from updated MOLES ...
      • PML do that ...
    • Still need to resolve OAI respository quality issues.
    • CSML API read methods need coordiation (ie. dom isn't doing the work, but he needs to implement them); relationship with CF-API work.
      • testrig via equivalents to ncdump and ncview? Exploiting CDAT
    • Phenomenon needs to be fully described (cell methods problem)
    • Expecation: where a standard name exists, exploit parameter mapping in vocab server to provide discovery vocabularly. Where a standardd name doesn't exist, we need to face the fact that moles records don't have parameter discovery ... records ...
    • csml api needs to be able to point at a file or an exist db csml file
    • what do we do about duplicates in our oai harvested repository
    • namespace problems in xqueries in exist and csml etc
    • we have one oai repository
      • should have two exist databases
        • one live one development
      • both populated directly
    • harvest now button
    • link checker for harvested material
      • could send an email if some exists to do so
      • flag broken links in display
    • parse access constraints a bit more carefully
    • Better branding for data providers (icons in browse etc)
    • How to show html in Trac ...
