Attendees
- Chris Lynnes
- Hook Hua
- Christine White
- Eric Rozell
- Thomas Huang
- Nga Chung
- Ruth Duerr
Action Items
- Anyone: Add your OpenSearch service to the list of servers!
- Chris: Put out poll for DCP-4 at the end of the meeting
Previous Action Items
- Chris or Hook will deprecate DCP-2 and DCP-3 on DCP page
- Brian will work on generalized version of DCP-4 (Pedro will contribute examples for WxS)
- Chris will send out Doodle poll for DCP-4
- James will update examples for DCP-4 with details and additional examples (also include all the different OPeNDAP MIME types) (also, try to use real links) (also put an example with a "length" attribute)
- All review DCP-6 if interested (only a few hours left!)
- Hook will continue to tweak DCP-7 before voting
Planning for the ESIP Summer Meeting
- Not necessarily bad for Discovery to have limited sessions
- We don't need as much planning,better to integrate across sessions
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
Metadata Casting for Data, Services, & Events/Topics
- Talking about casting standards
Open Source Software evaluation - ESRI's Geoportal Usability Test
- Some discussion of OpenSearch when reporting usability
Discovery Planning Session - Need to be added?
- Can this be merged with Brian's Metadata Casting?
- Could do a planning meeting on a telecon
- A lot of the things we are doing for Discovery are overlapping with ESC
ESIP Testbed: Encouraging Technology Innovation for Earth Science
- There will be an update from ESRI on discovery testbed performance
Update on DCPs
- DCP-4
- DCP-5
- DCP-6
