    2020This is a short summary about the things discussed at the PundIt workshop on 23/05. Some more dedailed and additiona information will be available once I recieve the slides of Simone Fonda (the tool developer).

    22 '''Users of PundIt'''. "Europeana cloud" can be one of them. Currently they consider if the tool suits their aims.

    2626'''OA-compatibility''': not 100%, but in the ToDo list of the developers.

    28 '''An RDF-triple: is the  only schema of any PundIt annotation''', which must have the
    29 form "subject-predicate-object". The workshop audience was rather critical about
    30 it since you really need to get used to the way the things are annotated. While simple annotations like|
    31 "text A"-"created by"-"author B" can be created and saved quickly, a more involved relation needs
    32 a specific workaround.

    34 In the future, the developers plan "to hide the triples" behind user friendly composite (modular) predicates.
    35 In particular they consider adding variables to be able to express something
    36 similar to search queries, e.g. text X created by Marx where the creation date
    37 of X is between 1830 and 1840 (not sure about exact formulation).

    39 Vocabularies for predicates: are provided or can be configured by the
    40 administrator. PundIt requests vocabularies e.g. via KORBO api.

    42 '''Administrator'''. Both, the client and the server, parts of PundIt  need
    43 administrating. The administrator needs to configure and update vocabularies for the client
    44 and the servers where annotations are saved.

    4535
    46 '''Server.''' At the moment PundIt is well-thought as a one-server system. 
    47 Connecting multiple servers is in the future plans. One of the forseen problems
    48 is export/import of notebooks, with annotators registered on one server and
    49 not registered on another.

    5037
    5138'''Notebooks.''' At the moment you cannot copy an annotation from one notebook to another.

    53 '''Authentication/sharing'''. An authentication can be done via an openID, a google or yahoo account,
    54 or credentials are created by a PundIt server. A user can create either fully personal or fully public notebook.
    55 No group notebooks are possible at the moment. The workshop audience was not happy
    56 with that. A workaround: to fake a group you make a single account for a group of people. In this case, however, it would not |
    57 be clear who is annotating what, unless the participants make an agreement how each individual
    58 marks his/her annotations.

    60 '''Named-content methodology'''. You may annotate not only a web-document but its
    61 content, if its web-publishers agrees to provide a content vocabulary.
    62 For instance, let there be 2 images of the same person in a document.
    63 If the publisher allows to mark them by the same content (the name of the person) then any annotation on one image
    64 is an annotation the other one and vice versa. Entities with the same content does
    65 not need to belong to the same document (???). Moreover, in the same way you
    66 create linkig between a high- and a low-resolution versions of the same image.

    68 Another situation where content annotating can be used is resolving an annotation
    69 with dynamically updated document (in some cases). For instance, if an image or a text fragment
    70 are annootated as conent then when they are moved from one place to another their annotations
    71 will be still resolvable.

    73 '''Annotating image'''. You can annotate an image part as well, by surrounding it by
    74 the coresponding polygon.

    76 '''Visualisation'''. In principle it is possible to connect PundIt to some fancy visaulising tool. There
    77 a demo example where the participants of the workshop create each two annotationsof the form:
    78 "text A is created by a phylosopher B", and "text A cites a philosopher C". A third-part aggregator
    79 collect all such annotations and make a time-line in which "B is influcenced by C" connections
    80 can be seen for all B and C used by the participants of the workshop to create their triples.
    81 Technically, connecting to a visualisation tool needs an intermediate layer which will send
    82 the necessary requests to the  annotation server and transforms the returned values to the data
    83 for the visualisation tool.
