ICAT Schema Discussion

[Rolf Krahl]

Dear all,

As discussed in the last few meetings, we would need to look into the
open proposals for schema changes in ICAT and we would need dedicated
meetings for that. I took the action to setup a date poll for a first
meeting in April.

Please indicate your availability by 28 March (next monthly meeting)
at:

https://terminplaner6.dfn.de/p/a7018a6ed12d29bec10b204f83d2f479-645917


See the GitHub issues [1] for a list of open proposals for the ICAT
schema.

The idea for the first meeting would be to get an overview of
proposals that are still relevant and that we need to discuss in
detail. Depending on the outcome of that, we might schedule one or
more followup meetings for that detail discussion.

I will send a followup mail to the group next week making a suggestion
on how to organize that first meeting.

Best regards,
Rolf

I'd like to make a suggestion on how to organize that meeting: the
goal for the first meeting is to get an overview of the proposals that
are still relevant and make a selection of proposals to consider for a
more detailed discussion in one of the subsequent meetings.

The idea for the organization of the first meeting would be to only
consider proposals that are actively supported by at least one project
member. So if you want to see one of the proposals to be implemented,
you'd need to raise your voice in the first meeting and prepare a
short presentation explaining why this is needed and whether there are
any compatibility issues with the proposed change.

Obviously, we should discuss this procedure in the monthly meeting on
Thursday this week.

Still, I already prepared a HedgeDoc to compile a list of proposals
with their advocate for the agenda of the first meeting:

(I hope, you are all able to edit this document.)

And, as a gentile reminder, if you have not already done:

The date poll had a clear favorite, we will meet on

Tuesday, 2nd April,
15:00 – 17:00 CEST / 14:00 – 16:00 BST / 13:00 – 15:00 UTC

See in your time zone [1].

See below for the meeting link.

See the GitHub issues [2] for a list of open proposals for the ICAT
schema. If you want to see any of these proposals to be implemented
in the next major ICAT release, please raise your voice, put it on the
agenda for the meeting [3] and prepare a short presentation explaining
what the proposal acutally is, why this is needed and whether there

are any compatibility issues with the proposed change.
