Minutes

  1. Prev. action items: 
    1. PCDM validator needs some additional work before submitting to the community
    2. Also some additional info gathering needed for file association questions
    3. targeting next week to complete this
    4. This can be pitched for Dev congress + LDCX
  2. Work on validator code
    1. yml file decoupled from QA but it will be possible for individual implementers to plug QA in
    2. Expose ability to set custom validation config file 
    3. Other uses outside of pcdmuse: namespace are possible 
    4. This file is currently focusing on validation config; UI config can be tackled later and likely in a separate place
    5. This is basically a generic RDF type validator; we could use some existing AF machinery
      1. With the addition that we need to check that a file associated with a given use (RDF) type exist
    6. Whenever you change your type, AF will need to be able to tell the types that should not be removed
  3. Wireframes
    1. Create page: Adam Wead already implemented this in LAKEshore; should be possible to extrapolate the code from LAKEshore and put in Hyrax
      1. We can do all validation in the UI via AJAX and display error messages if validation fails at an point
      2. Have a separate service to handle validation logic
    2. Ran out of time to comment on other pages; no particular red flag at a quick glance
  4. Engaging other developers
    1. Complete validation PR
    2. Define a clear path and present to dev congress
