Documentation Work Update (Kelly, Wendy)
- Class description clean-up in LION
- Problem with documentation outputs from LION, though builds are working fine - Jon to resolve.
- Fixing the XMI being exported - this is the 'canonical' XMI issue for import
- Translate the work that Deirdre and Darren have been doing (Jon, Deirdre?)
- Framing the DDI 4 effort within the DDI specification context as a whole, to include 3.3, etc.
- How to frame what the prototype is, with a production version being farther into the future.
- Coherency across docuements - resources needed
RDF/OWL Work Update (Achim, Jared)
Deliverables for prototype:
- Suggested as required: PSM, DDI vocabularies for the three functional views in RDF-S/OWL, transform programs from PIM to PSM to RDF-S/OWL syntax, mapping table to other RDF vocabularies.
- Suggested as optional but very important: documentation of DDI vocabularies, tests (as RDF instances, same content as the XML test instances), program for proving the metadata roundtrip between XML and RDF
Options for the transform:
PIM (EA-XMI) to PSM (EA-XMI) to RDF-S/OWL syntax
PIM (EA-XMI) to PIM (C-XMI) to PSM (C-XMI) to RDF-S/OWL syntax
Program languages for transform:
Currently XSLT, hard to maintain
Alternatives: Javascript, Java
- Pre-NADDI and future sprints
