| + * tested Xanthoria EcoGrid codes on Axis, without globus on windows machine. It works fine. |
| + |
| + Current work: |
| + * Currently, I am working on two things: |
| + ** Making changes to existing codes to make it compatible with latest resultset schema (getting rid of AnyRecordType) |
| + ** Trying to install and configure GT3.2 on a development machine (linux box), so that I can test Xanthoria and then maybe check in the codes to seek cvs. |
| + |
| + Significant issues |
| + * Currently I am interested in the following issues: |
| + ** Configuring GT version 3.2-how to use the certificates? Will the older ones work or do we need to create again? What’s the procedure for installing and configuring GT 3.2? |
| + ** Is anybody working on setting up GIIS and MDS? What is the current status with this respect? |

| + Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed: |
| + * Contributed to the SEEK/Kepler UI discussion. |
| + ** Highlights: There is consensus building that a higher level conceptual design tool will be needed that more closely represents how models are constructed by the scientists. |
| + ** Dan constructed several screen shots for talking points at http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu/~higgins/BoxesAndArrows |
| + ** The filling of the usability engineering position is key to future progress on all UI issues (although there is a lot of progress yet to be made). |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs: |
| + * Start on Bug 1595 - Create Advance Query Builder UI |
| + ** Continued investigation into which Swing features can be leveraged to create the UI. |
| + ** In general, the top level of components makes it easy to quickly prototype the general window. But as always the devil is in the details. Here is a small sample of some of the issues: |
| + *** The JDesktopPane was not made to expand and shrink as elements are placed "off screen", and items "off-screen to do paint correctly when dragged back |
| + *** Painting is problematic in the desktop because of clipping issues |
| + *** Hardest: Because Swing uses a single delegate to do all the rendering into a buffer, there are no "real" visual "frames" for each item in the JList that represent a field in a table. This makes it extremely difficult to track the scrolling of table and make the "connection lines" between the tables scroll appropriately. |

| + * working on Bug 1576 - implement enterProviderData. Robert has converted some ITIS data to the current Taxonomic Exchange Schema (still waiting on hickory data) to test parsing the TES. |
| + |
| + Significant issues |
| + * Still concerned with the definition of a GUID-bearing concept as containing relationships. This seems to reduce the utility of our service to scientists wishing to markup or search on datasets with a name string. |

| + Current Work and Bugs: |
| + * Continuing to work on the concept relationships manuscript, now turning to final sections; the work is directly related to discussions between KU and Napier last week. |
| + * In exchange with KU and Napier about these issues (see e.g. http://tdwg.napier.ac.uk/phpwiki/index.php/What%20Gets%20a%20Guid and http://tdwg.napier.ac.uk/phpwiki/index.php/RelationshipTypes). |
| + |
| + Significant Issues |
| + * It seems like we're converging on a consensus that concept relationships may be authored (as an option) without also authoring concepts. KU made this a requirement, in essence, and Napier is now working on ways to accommodate it within the taxonomic exchange schema. |

| + !! Dan Higgins |
| + Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed: |
| + * Completed some additional examples of ecology specific pipeline (Predetor/Prey detailed model) --- Bug 1336 |
| + * Completed a Simple R actor using the existing CommandLine Actor and and input script file (Bug 1342). R creates an image file which is then displayed by existing Ptolemy actors. |
| + * Created a web page comparing various 'box and arrow' systems |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs: |
| + * Continuing work on a more general R-actor system. I have succeeded in getting a java system for running interactive command line systems like R running. This should make it easier to create customized actors from command line systems without having to write system specific jni code for every case. |

| + ** Sketch of owlDLCompliance function |
| + ** Enabled editing of class/instances properties save for uri base |
| + ** Replaced ascii text for math symbol by respective standard math symbols from Unicode, which enhances look and feel |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs |
| + * Redesigning property panes and enabling the editing for constraints , properties, and other things on the toolbox |
| + |
| + Significant issues |
| + * Does anyone know how to gracefully (without raising an exception) check if a string is a valid URI without using external java libraries???!!! (this problem slows down my work on editing properties) |

| + ** Converted ITIS mammals only, as the requirements were to have a testing instance of the TES for implementation of enterProviderData |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs: |
| + * Minor data model changes to incorporate the schema fully |
| + * Bug 1603 - Implementation of addConcept |

| + !! Jenny Wang |
| + Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed: |
| + * fixed the second bug mentioned in the last week report: the previous |
| + conflicted requirements on java version from running multiple threads on windows and the XQuery engine being used in our schema matching tool. |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs: |
| + * Work on 2 paper drafts |
| + * Fix more bugs of the tool: |
| + ** make details of nodes accessible from the GUI, |
| + ** correctly handle union types of matches in the GUI, |
| + ** input domain thesauri from user specified text files instead of builtin ones |
| + * Implement abstract schemas and abstract schema morphisms to make the tool more general. |
| + |
| + Significant Issues: |
| + * Regarding connecting the schema matching tool with Kepler, there is |
| + no problems of java version and performance on Windows machines any more. |

| + Current Work and Bugs |
| + * Working on bug #1597 - Logging in and out works fine. I sent a note to Steve about what I'm doing, but haven't heard back yet - I emailed him not too long ago. He mentioned using the hibernate persistance layer in one of his emails a while ago, so I'm incorporating that into the server. |
| + It's slowing me down a bit, but I should be over the hump tomorrow. |
| + * Finished the paper with Shawn Bowers for the Semantic Web and Databases conference. |

| + Significant issues |
| + * Wondering if there's any kind of unified authentication system for SEEK? I'm using struts for the authentication stuff I'm doing, so there's going to be a clean division between the view and the model. Who's the best ecogrid person to ask about authentication from the ecogrid perspecitve? |
