Agenda

(Carried over from last time)

• If the date for the next GO Consortium meeting has been agreed for the 7-9 October in Pasadena, would it be appropriate for these details to be circulated more widely?
• Core Consortium activities: I have made three documents for publishing on the GOC website. This is just first draft and is missing some styling and formatting (I miss Amelia!). I am thinking about where to link it from etc. I will work on interlinking and beautifying these pages later.(Rama)
  • http://www.geneontology.org/GO.Submit.Annotation.shtml
  • http://www.geneontology.org/AnnotationFAQ.shtml
  • http://www.geneontology.org/IDmappingFiles.shtml
• Suzi likes it
• Emily suggests tweeting about it

• Desktop sharing software. We've tried Google hangout, and it didn't really perform well for us. The EBI WebEx hasn't worked out either. So we still need something - can we just get a consortium-wide license for go2meeting please? [Jane]
  • Jane suggests paying for service - google hangout was too slow
  • Hyiau says that he uses Google hangout a lot, and it's working very well.

• We'd like to have the GO helpdesk mails direct into JIRA for tracking and stats. Any objections? The mailing list would stay the same. [Jane]
