Phenote:Minutes: July 3, 2007

Talking points

• Developers discussed their current items:
  • Jim discussed features he's currently developing. He's adding a new configurable item called "groups". For his use-case, it will allow a user to select one or more specimens to attribute a phenotype character. Its a shortcut that will translate into several rows in a spreadsheet.
  • Nicole is working on processing & displaying both intra and inter-ontology cross-products. (see the terminfo pic below)
  • Mark has started working on a configuration GUI, which is partially done, but not complete. He is currently working on the ability for external applications to communicate with phenote via http requests.
• Midori reflected that the new docking framework in oboedit is nice and cool and thought it might add to phenote.
• Developers decided to have a separate bi-weekly phone conference, 2nd and 4th Tuesdays, 10:30am. However, for July, these will take place on the 17th and 31st.
