version 11:
| Line 13 was replaced by lines 13-23 |
| - ;ConceptMapper: bats data 1993 and 2005 imported. Xianhua will export and send KU data in TCS (esp. '93). Now is able to infer congruence between concepts if children are the same. Would like outside expert to evaluate his assumptions. |

Would like outside expert to evaluate his assumptions. Jim will check with Nico to hire bat expert to do this for us. Tool will be used to check this, Laura has a few immediate suggestions, more later, busy with Kepler now though. |
| + |
| + ;Visualization Evaluations: Taxonomists Eval (in NC) went better than Collection Manager Eval. (in KS). Andy B. (Coll Mgr) got back to Martin later - really liked addition of geographic info in online version. ?? Scovill - grant for web based project to develop online consensus taxonomy - will also eval viz tool in exchange for info from Jessie for their project (next Mon). |
| + |
| + ;GUID meeting: Report - LSID, RDF agreed upon. Concerns about scalability of RDF. Use cases on GBIF website for GUIDs and Specimens. Sally sent email about GUIDs and Concepts. Jessie offered SEEK Taxon to be an LSID authority. GBIF now has 6 Java programmers building a Taxon db. They have LSID server, ITIS data -> concepts and some Taxon APIs returning TCS docs. Another GUID meeting in May. Matt volunteered SEEK for observation datasets/LSIDs - and wants to use LSIDs for workflow pieces. |
| + ;: Who will define what gets a GUID? Community rules for assigning GUIDs? Can issue for your own concepts with no questions. Historical concepts more problematic - who gets to define these - don't want multiple definitions of the same legacy data. What is metadata and what is part of GUID? |
| + ;:Jessie put in proposal to Moore Foundation for documentation and standards, got funding but to do something else working with/for Donald/Roger. Lots of opportunities to collaborate on development - why have SEEK Taxon/GBIF not been able to get together on this yet? |
| + |
| + ;SEEK Taxon in other projects: Jim: Anthropologist in Arizona wants to use TOS for his project. Stinger: New plants project will use LSIDs, concepts. |
| + |
| + ;Next call: March 15, same time. Discuss NSF Review presentation. Say Happy Birthday to Laura! |
