Muscle Development

Giorgio Valle and Erika Feltrin of CRIBI at the University of Padua are planning a content meeting to make some new muscle development terms. Here are some rough plans.

Technology: webex and skype.
Content meeting: Planned for around July.
Erika Feltrin and Jennifer Clark will meet at 11 am GMT for skype conferences every Friday to push this work through. All welcome.

Personnel

• Erika Feltrin (Local organizer)
• Jennifer Clark (GO Editorial Office organizer)
• Giorgio Valle (Funding and recruiting experts)
• Content meeting personnel (Currently assuming Jennifer Clark, Midori Harris, David Hill, Erika Feltrin, Giorgio Valle. Perhaps also Rex Chisholm, Jane Lomax, Amelia Ireland)
• David Hill and Midori Harris (Ontology Development Managers)

Muscle experts:

To be decided. Giorgio is going to contact experts and try to drum up enthusiasm in the community. He has tried previously and found some people enthusiastic whilst others were skeptical because of the currently poor muscle terms in the GO. 28/1/7

Implementation plan:

Get experts and money:

• Get Telethon funding changed from salary to meeting money (Giorgio Valle) Done.
• Find local muscle people to put in initial batch of terms from reviews. (Giorgio Valle and Erika Feltrin) Almost done.
• Last Tuesday we had a meeting with 3 local experts who are very interested in Muscle Contetn Meeting. Next Monday we will have an other meeting with 2 more local experts.
• Find more widespread muscle experts to come to content meeting and check terms. (Giorgio Feltrin and Erika Feltrin)

Set up infrastructure:

• Erika needs to be able to commit to scratch directory. Jennifer Clark to organize this.
• Wiki page to be set up (Jennifer Clark) Done.
• Erika and Giorgio to get GOCwiki passwords. (Is this okay?)
• Software to set up at Erika Feltrin's end: Webex, skype, OBO-Edit (Erika Feltrin, Jennifer Clark) In progress.
• Erika Feltrin to join OBO-Edit working group and OBO-Edit chat as required to help deal with OBO-Edit issues. (Erika Feltrin and Jennifer Clark)
• Local Padua experts to get OBO-Edit so they can start to edit. (Erika Feltrin and Jennifer Clark)
• Choose reviews (Local experts)
• Set date and work out meeting details (Local experts and Erika Feltrin)

The meeting is planned for round about July. Erika needs to start writing up her PhD by the end of August so we need to be completely finished by then.

Content Meeting Plan

We suggest that this meeting should run for two full days.
This meeting will be unusual in that it will involved two languages (English and Italian) as well as expert muscle biology knowledge and ontology expertise. In addition there are no muscle experts in the GO Editorial Office. If no one with both muscle and ontology expertise is coming then extra time and perhaps extra GO Editorial office personnel should be included to allow for this.
