Hi
Yes I still exist...I've been hiding away in my openModeller Desktop code and have about 3 weeks email backlog to catch up on :-(

Hey people!!
Long time ago there was a meeting in Campinas... 6 incredible person met there to create an amazing prototype that would save the world... but they forgot to finish the documentation!!
What a pity, the world would have been a much better place....
I think there are some minor tweaks to the actual app we need to sort too:
- gbif data portal is changing (rest services are going live) and the new url will be data.gbif.org - nusoap issue on doing getLayers - check why model resutls weret displaying - general clean up of any cruft - sort out missing bits in installation procedure - doxygen docs for all classes
We can be different! We still have the opportunity to save the world if we finish the report from our last meeting!
I have edited several parts of the document and sent it to Lee to ask him for comments. He is very happy with the status of the report, but I have to say I would still edit a little bit more... in any case I think we can start a fast process... let say we put the document under ask for comments until wednesday, if no one complain before I will send it then.
How about we try to dedicate a day this week to 'triage' the remaining issues I listed above? Would be good ot sort them out along with the report.
If someone, for any reason, does not have access to the document on the SVN server
Lee also asked me to present the report and the prototype on the next OGC meeting in Paris, the 12th of June. Flip will give us 20min and 5 more for questions...
Ah - time travel :-) 12 July I guess?
I hope everybody is fine with me going there. This is part of the TDWG-OGC MoU, we have to demonstrate that we take them seriously.
I'm happy for you to go there just try not to mention how many coconuts we drank during the code fest....
I will be on holidays from the 28th til the 8th of July. I will travel to the states for a friends wedding in Kentucky. If things get crazy I might finish getting marriage in Las Vegas as Elvis Presley, but if not I will probably fly then directly tom Paris. My trip is NY-Chicago-Kentucky if someone is on the road those days.
Remember those gambling houses use advanced algorithms to make sure they always win...
So... I did it again... I will use my holidays to work on the presentation and on the prototype. Ideally I will present a finish prototype on HTML and Flex, with the design that the designer did here and with Yahoo maps integration. Of course also with a nice presentation, not a boring one, and with lot of preparation. But somewhere between this ideal situation and a total disaster I will finish, if someone want to help please go ahead!! First thing I need to have is a title for the presentation. I have some ideas but more are welcome:
-90 coconuts and an old Dell laptop to save biodiversity using geospatial standards. -Demonstration on how tropical weather influence programming productivity and happiness... using OGC standards! -OGC is not enough -Biodioversity 2.0
And some more classical, and more probable like: -OGC standards and biodiversity: the biogeosdi experiment.
I think a repeat along the lines of the final presentation you gave to Sidnei, Dora and Vanderlei would be good.
Regards
Tim
