Action Items
Review Action Items from previous meeting
All: Check list of database contacts and make any additions needed. http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/External_Database_Contact_Info. Chris to email GO List.
Chris and ontology development group: Forge ahead with adding new files; curators switch to editing gene_ontology_write.obo on date to be announced.
Chris: partly completely switch
In the meantime, Midori is manually comitting the file gene_ontology.edit
Still to do: fix the script so that it also updates gene_ontology.edit
- ACTION ITEM: Mike/Chris need to agree on the date
- Chris will send a pre-announcement to go_friends mailing list to announce the new file
Reference Genome group: Decide on QC procedures, frequency, etc. [In the Ref genomes meeting agenda]
Reference Genome group: Determine protocol for making ISS annotations. [In the Ref genomes meeting agenda]
Reference Genome group: Try WebEx "raise hand" feature for next conf call. Pascale will put that in the agenda for ref genomes meeting [failed...]
Ontology Development
- Regulates loaded in AmiGO?
- Function/process links
- other items
Outreach/User Advocacy
- Agenda item (Jen): Do Jane and I need to do managers' reports on outreach and advocacy for the consortium meeting? This have been very quiet for both groups lately and time is quite tight at the meeting.
Software
Reference Genome
- Monthly call was yesterday; not too many people
- orthology determination (P-POD) is 'on schedule'
- curation tool for reference genomes is progressing
- Suzi, Judy, Michael made a nice 'annotation pipeline' document, available at: http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/Annotation_pipeline
- Annotators liked the document
- we'll meet next week to discuss it
- I am having a hard time making people 'complete' the annotations; some people want to wait for the 'pipeline' to be in place, but I am not sure how different it will be
