Discussion points

MGI and WB Imports

Status updates

  • WB
    • Alex will work on preparing a test GPAD file with annotation history for WB - hopes to have it on the GOA ftp site soon
  • MGI
  • Have a periodic follow-up call to review progress?

Xenbase into GO main

  • Malcolm already attends Judy's meeting, TO-DO: invite him (and/or xenbase reps) to GO-annotation calls. Need to make sure XB maintains own annotations, is in line with GO SOPs.

Pathway Genome Databases and the Alliance

See Chris' email

  • Explore bringing in other existing curated pathways in a similar way that we did for Reactome
  • Follow-up to Alliance call with Peter K. two weeks ago?

ECO and IEAs

In GPAD we mandate use of ECO over evidence codes. However, have we properly evaluated ECO for its use here? There is a massive mismatch in the GO meaning of IEA and the mapped term in ECO, see

Users versus group-contacts.yaml

https://github.com/geneontology/go-site/blob/master/metadata/group-contacts.csv https://github.com/geneontology/go-site/blob/master/metadata/groups.yaml

See discussion in https://github.com/geneontology/go-site/pull/1447

  • users contain all users, including people not on the project anymore
  • Not sure where affiliations come from for eg Cath Brooksbank listed as GO_central).
  • users does not have GH handles
  • group-contacts includes only active members
  • 'Expertise' should like people's expertise or role (developer/curator)

-> How do we want to use those two files moving forward ? Do we need two files ?

Publications

  • Val's matrix paper is available as a draft
  • Authors have reviewed and made comments
  • Do the GO PIs (besides Chris who is last author) also need to read?
