2. VLO
   1. Brief status update
   2. The VLO's 'Format' facet and the use of MIME types (Hanna)
      • To improve the 'Format' facet, we probably first need some agreement on it's content, i.e. the use of MIME types, in particular for file formats that don't have an unambiguous standard MIME type such as application/tei+xml or application/xml. In CLARIN-D there has been a decision to try out an approach based on Content-Type syntax; a standard MIME type with additional parameters for disambiguation, cf. MIME format variants for some info and links to the discussion on mailing lists.
   3. Helpdesk responsibilities and workflows (Hanna)
      • Is our (and CLARIN-D's) idea of helpdesk responsibilities and workflows for reports and requests via the VLO OK with everyone involved?
   4. Priorities and planning (Twan)
      • Maintenance release (VLO 4.0.2)
      • Next minor release (VLO 4.1)
   5. Development process (Twan)
      • Code forks/synchronisation
      • Sustainable procedure for (near) future
3. Facet mapping & normalisation (Matej, Davor)
   1. Brief status update w.r.t. curation module, related work
   2. Workflow for application of mapping in production
      • Short term
      • Long term (curation module)
