Notes

• Toolkit
  • Menzo included a runnable (command line) conversion tool, which is included in RC1 (released for the centre meeting)
• Component Registry
  • Bulk conversion: add validation of input and output to toolkit
    • Twan will finish component upgrade and test it on a recent dump of the registry database
  • Front end support for CMDI 1.2
    • Version 2.1.0 will have essential support
    • Version 2.2.0 will have new feature support
      • Twan will add tickets for these additions to the milestone ​https://github.com/clarin-eric/component-registry-front-end/milestones/2.2.0
• CLAVAS:
  • Software (OpenSKOS) will stay at the current version,
  • Menzo will look at updating the ISO language code vocabulary, remove old one and sync it with current ISO 639-3 language component
    • after migration we can start vocabulary components with a lifecycle (open/closed)
    • analysis on current state - any outliers in instances?
  • Roadmap for OpenSKOS 2 - migration from the current version is still a todo
    • once ready: ccr and clavas will be updated
• VLO
  • Thomas did some work, but the import does not work yet, mainly due to issues with namespace
  • Thomas will continue work on this on Monday next week
  • Probably best initial approach: ignore namespace
    • (Davor uses vtd-xml for the curation tool tool, ignores namespaces)
• Other tools
  • Curation tools
    • Not in production but would be nice to have it supporting 1.2 as well
  • Validation
    • SchemAnon: currently one fixed schema
    • Check Oliver's validation tool
    • One of these included Batch conversion tool
  • Editors
    • Mitch follows up on COMEDIA
    • Twan will test CMDI 1.2 with Arbil
• Centres
  • Awareness
    • Anual conference
  • CMDI 1.2 information page should be created
    • Migration info
    • FAQ
    • Also update CMDI page (​clarin.eu/cmdi)
  • FLAT (new MPI/Meertens repository system) may be based on CMDI 1.2
