Action items from previous calls
All are carried over from March 25
- Pascale and Jane: Organize conference call on usage of tricky GO terms; include ontology editors and annotators (both ref gen and broader annotation list). -> We'll try to do something for the June Reference genome conference call, June 9th.
- Pascale, Chris: Finish and circulate gp2protein file documentation. IN PROGRESS
- PIs will discuss Jen's funding situation and get back to Jen immediately. (Current contract finishes 14th July.)
- GO Editorial Office talk to Chris while he is visiting EBI next week about putting XPs and has_part into write file.
- Minutes available
- Pascale will write to GO list to arrange the call on binding.
- Jane will work with Pascale on sending a survey to GOhelp addresses. Maintain the list and give people the option to come off the list. Initial mail will invite people to join so they are initially opting in.
- I have parsed a list of email addresses from the gohelp archive - there are about 300. I don't know whether it is worth making another list for these people to subscribe to or whether to ask them to subscribe to gofriends. Lets discuss this. +
Discussion items
- Announcements from ontology development - new things coming soon
- We're about to test using the has_part relation in a scratch file. More detail in the minutes from Chris' visit; Amelia has done draft documentation.
- We'll add internal cross-products to the go_write (and therefore also go_ext) file soon. The first ones to go in will be the 'regulates' xps that David & Tanya are working with. Again, there are relevant meeting minutes
- ChEBI curators have offered to present some of their curator training to GO people so we'll have a better idea what is in ChEBI and how it's curated. We're tentatively considering the day before the next GOC meeting, i.e. September 22.
