Planning for the ESIP Summer Meeting

Brokering and Beyond - A glimpse at the Future of Global Data Sharing

  • Related to Discovery (overview of the concept of brokering)
  • More closely aligned with ESC

Discovery Hack-a-Thon

  • Done a lot of work deploying services and working on standards
  • Last "missing link" is how to enable more clients to actually use services
  • Presenting a few "low-hanging fruit" ways of accessing services
    • Shell script w/ wget/curl
    • XSLT
  • Idea is to show people how easy it is to access discovery services
  • Ruth: Could it also be about the server-side? What about: "This is all you have to do to service-cast your data"
  • Would also include time for the testbed.
    • Want people tinkering with the testbed
  • Need to have mentors / teachers for each area
    • Should there be a Perl area, Python area, CSS/XSLT, etc.
  • Designate some points of contact for after the session
  • Put together a resources page for each "dialect" of the hack-a-thon
    • Also can throw together a presentation for each
    • Ideally, people would be able to bring something home with them
  • Ruth could mentor for NSIDC's services / casting tools (at the simple level)
  • Email list if you have an OpenSearch service you want to develop clients for
  • Thomas could mentor Python
  • Some would want to see more "enterprise-level" clients, like Java
  • Could give a Groovy example for Java developers
  • Best if there were multiple services to test clients on
    • Revisit / update the list of OpenSearch services

Update on DCPs

  • DCP-4
  • DCP-5
  • DCP-6
