- RDF.rb 2.0 Current Status (Tom Johnson)
- current status: has been on 1.99, with intention to get 2.0 features into 1.0 branch to avoid breaking - but a couple of breaking changes re transactions are needed: beta release this week, hope for quick testing
- once beta release out, will move some other gems over for coherent suite at launch time
- ActiveTriples: stuck on 1.x, actively working on 1.99 - either need to get future release ready for ActiveFedora, or backport changes to AT 0.7.0 (and maybe even 0.6.0) to run on RDF.rb 2.0 (not a massive amount of work)
- Documentation on ActiveTriples (Lynette Rayle)
- have gems that work with ActiveTriples outside Hydra (directly against triple store) - work with AT 6, want to update - persistence strategy changed between 6 and 8 - am documenting expectations, especially around persisting and destroying things - want to discuss with Tom
- currently a gist - when firmed up, will publish on AT page
- this work has led to four issues on ActiveTriples
- Documentation: Understanding Persistence Strategies for ActiveTriples (Lynette Rayle)
- Discuss approach for PR https://github.com/projecthydra/sufia/pull/1564 (Justin Coyne)
- around work analytics: question whether to use one or two tables, against the complex question of what viewing a work means if there are multiple files - would like feedback from those who are invested in Analytics
