Notes

• CMDI rollout
  • Was carried out on 7 and 8 July, documentation was ​added to the CLARIN website.
  • A number of small fixes and updates were carried out in the following week (version number 1.2.0 was kept for the toolkit):
    • Fixed component registry location in record upgrade stylesheet and schematron rules
    • Element with only an enum was not handled correctly and ValueScheme patterns were lost, both in 'comp2schema' transformation - fixed
    • Registering new components in the component registry did not work due to bad initialisation, this was fixed in Component Registry 2.1.1 (some days after the 2.1.0 deployment)
  • Some issues related to component downgrade that surfaced very recently have been fixed in a maintenance release of the toolkit, ​version 1.2.1, used by ​Component Registry 2.1.3 (both currently in production)
• Versioning of the specification: only major and minor version, all toolkit versions with matching major and minor (regardless of 'patch' level) should be compliant. Revisions of the specification within a minor release will simple be dated. A footnote will be added to the spec to explain this. Semantic versioning is applied (at least to the toolkit) although the transition from 1.1 to 1.2 technically would have required an increase at the major version level.
• UML diagrams need to be unified (task for Oddrun and Mitch)
• Specification will be open for commenting/suggesting on Google Docs until Monday 15 August, then changes will be transferred to wiki and a new document will be made available
  • Update: ​new version available
• Doodle for next meeting: ​http://doodle.com/poll/zzwmk979zr3b87pv
  • Next meeting: 2016-09-15 14:00
