Agenda and Notes, April 5, 2006

1. UIUC contract

  • Quick review of where we are, what still needs action on our part
  • Anything new on the money?

2. Registry screenshots (Jon will distribute prior to the meeting)

3. New version document (Stuart has distributed)

  • Question: What criteria should we use to determine how we will decide among options?
    • Possible criteria: Whether software can make the distinction (given that reliance on humans, particularly untrained ones, is problematic)?
    • Possible criteria: Whether the additional complexity enables a useful service to be created (if not, is purity or completeness sufficient reason)?
  • Question: Is the ability for users to see previous versions (and perhaps view "diffs") a reasonable substitute for the complex typed tracking options, such as Melanie describes?

4. Registry demo at UB meeting

  • What should it include?
  • Is a live demo important?
  • How important will it be to demonstrate versioning?
