Hi all, I am currently at another (two) conferences, and so will only be able to attend the first half of the meeting today. It would be great if we could discuss any TDWG plans!

Hierarchical Events guide document
by ys628 28 Jun '23

28 Jun '23

Hi all, Thanks for a very productive meeting. It seems we are reaching an agreement on the Hierarchical Events document. You can find the document here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_XMEgB7p7OI7a5Ouq6G9oa7LmQFPcFhZZCLD9g…>. As a group, we managed to discuss until point 4 in section 3 Usage guidelines (normative). Ani and Wesley will make some editorial edits to the current document and next week we will keep discussing the points. I did a first pass through all eco:terms and classified them as a 'design' or 'result' property. I also added the categories of terms. Please take a look and share your thoughts here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d…> (tab:design/result properties). We kept a previous version of the document here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jMo-LgtWZ2gLoMFfKUrN4qJ3cFRCk_3K7afQxnf…>, so we do not lose track of all the comments we added previous to this major refactoring of the document. Please do not modify this version. Thank you all for your feedback on this!

Meeting today
by Anahita Kazem 22 Jun '23

22 Jun '23

Dear all, I am attending a workshop and will not be able to attend today's meeting. Unfortunately I also haven't completed the promised (minor) rewording task for the hierarchical Events document - but I'd be very happy to go through the updated document from today (with a fine toothcomb, of course).

Fwd: I believe that I am done inserting first-draft content into the hierarchical Events guide document
by John Wieczorek 14 Jun '23

14 Jun '23

Hi folks, Wesley has kindly provided the framework for the updated ideas with respect to event hierarchies (see below). Thanks bunches Wesley! I will take over from there as soon as I finish one higher priority on my plate. Cheers, John ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Wesley M. Hochachka <wmh6(a)cornell.edu> Date: Sat, Jun 10, 2023 at 8:28 PM Subject: I believe that I am done inserting first-draft content into the hierarchical Events guide document To: John Wieczorek <tuco(a)berkeley.edu> Cc: Yanina Sica <yanina.sica(a)gmail.com> Hi John, I have just finished adding/editing text in the "hierarchical Events" document ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_XMEgB7p7OI7a5Ouq6G9oa7LmQFPcFhZZCLD9g…) based on my understanding of the discussion during the last 30 minutes of last Wednesday's meeting. I assume that I was supposed to create new content in the sections before the normative text in Section 3, rather than to work on the usage guidelines in Section 3. So, I have tried add/edit text in Sections 1 and 2 in a way that I hope explains the rationale for the usage guidelines. I assume that Section 3 will also need to be altered to some extent in light of what we discussed last week. I have added new text (there is a new Section 1.4, and parts of Section 2 are completely new). However, I think that the starting text by Yanina contained important ideas, and to the extent that I felt able, I have modified Yanina's text to fit within a somewhat different framework. Yanina (or John) could you forward this message, or at least news that I am done to the Humbolt Extension listserv so that other folks will know that there is no material? However, I am assuming that now John should work with this starting material before anyone else dives into it. Apologies for not finishing on Friday, but it is amazing how a 2-hour meeting strategically placed near the start of a day can disrupt any attempts to do heavy editing during the rest of one's day...

Non-normative examples for hierarchical events in Humboldt Extension for ecological inventories
by Yi Ming Gan 07 Jun '23

07 Jun '23

Hi all, As promised, I have written some tabular simplified examples based on the Broke West use case for the non-normative examples in the hierarchical events in Humboldt Extension for ecological inventories<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_XMEgB7p7OI7a5Ouq6G9oa7LmQFPcFhZZCLD9g…> document. I hope I understood the principle correctly. Can someone please review it? Thanks a lot! Cheers Ming

02 Jun '23

Hi all, I am sorry but I did not finish reviewing the document on inheritance. I also wanted to reach out individually to Walter and Robert, official Parent Events of the Humboldt Core. So I do not think we are ready to 'submit' tomorrow. Maybe, we can briefly meet and confirm that all documents needed are there. As a summary of what we have so far: * Implementation report<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RFdSHoyzWCQk9qO6uup4xQjWOMzPyBb-A0mcjj9…>. The main document to submit to Darwin Core maintenance group stating that this extension is awesome! * should be ready * List of terms<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d…> (tab complete_term_list_ACTIVE). The most important document including all terms to include in the Humboldt extension for ecological inventories * should be ready (can we already update the Humboldt Extension Quick Reference Guide<https://tdwg.github.io/hc/terms/>?) * Additional official document to better explain eco:isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive<https://github.com/tdwg/hc/blob/main/docs/inclusive/index.md> * should be ready (check is all Event and Taxon now include their name spaces) * Additional official document to better explain hierarchical events and inheretance<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_XMEgB7p7OI7a5Ouq6G9oa7LmQFPcFhZZCLD9g…> * still need some revision, before it gets transformed into a markdown doc Please review the documents, particularly the authorship, until the end of the week. Ideally, we would start the official process next week!! * The Humboldt Extension Documentation or user guide (here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rX4m94rtZDR_8iIe3RvRnNYKDJcmSX3ii4S5hCz…>) will not be an official document but will be linked in our presentation. It still needs some revision, but it should not delay our presentation. Best!

Humboldt Task Group Meeting Wed 24 May 2023, 08:00 EST/12:00 UTC
by ys628 24 May '23

24 May '23

Dear Humboldties, In our last meeting, we decided to develop yet another piece of documentation that describes the "Properties of hierarchical Events in Humboldt Extension". This topic was briefly covered in the Implementation report and in the User guide but many of us felt the need for more information about this. I volunteered to start this document; you can take a look at it here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_XMEgB7p7OI7a5Ouq6G9oa7LmQFPcFhZZCLD9g…>. You will see that it needs more development but at least it is a start. In tomorrow's meeting it would be great to talk about this document as well as any advances on the Users Guide (here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rX4m94rtZDR_8iIe3RvRnNYKDJcmSX3ii4S5hCz…>), the list of terms (here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d…>) and the mardown doc on isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive (https://github.com/tdwg/hc/blob/main/docs/inclusive/index.md). See you! When to meet Wednesdays 8 am EST (see your time here<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20230419T120000&p…>) Where to meet Zoom link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/97318391101<https://www.google.com/url?q=https://yale.zoom.us/j/97318391101&sa=D&source…> Yani

Meeting!
by ys628 18 May '23

18 May '23

Hi all, Thank you all for working on the documents; I saw many of you made comments and revised both the general HE documentation and the implementation report. Much appreciated! Wesley, the documentation on isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive looks great! You really improved it, thank you so much! Unfortunately, I do not think I will be able to join the meeting today (I am in Frankfurt with lots of in person meetings...) I will kindly ask you to discuss and the following points. * Update the Humboldt Extension Quick Reference Guide<https://tdwg.github.io/hc/terms/> with updated terms * Additional document to better explain eco:isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive (please add content, examples, links to other terms, etc. to this <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11fPW4JibRWUnrtTOZwDkAcxo5d-lwnATXyh3xmO…> document). Markdown version? As usual, * Implementation report (please review and add yourself as an author here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RFdSHoyzWCQk9qO6uup4xQjWOMzPyBb-A0mcjj9…>) * List of terms (please review all eco: terms here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d…>, tab: complete_term_list_from_JW) * This will be added as an official document to the list of terms. The idea here, is that all the comments and relations of other terms will be better captured in a separate document instead of making a terribly long Comments section. * Humboldt Extension Documentation (please review here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rX4m94rtZDR_8iIe3RvRnNYKDJcmSX3ii4S5hCz…>) * This will not be an official document but will probably need to be linked in our presentation. Basically, I took our testing guide and removed all the parts related to the testing. We will need to update this document and polish it. When to meet Wednesdays 8 am EST (see your time here<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20230419T120000&p…>) Where to meet Zoom link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/97318391101<https://www.google.com/url?q=https://yale.zoom.us/j/97318391101&sa=D&source…> Thank you and sorry for missing the meeting Best, Yani Yanina V.

Markdown version of isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive Guidelines
by Baskauf, Steven James 17 May '23

17 May '23

Hi folks, I’ve done a conversion of the isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive Guidelines to Markdown. You can see the draft at: https://github.com/baskaufs/msc/blob/master/docs/inclusive.md When it’s good enough, I’ll submit it as a pull request to somewhere in the Humboldt repo. Notes: 1. In the Google Doc, some text earlier in the doc repeated what was in the Examples section, so I deleted it. 2. I added the standard status (1.1) and RFC 2119 keyword section (1.2) section. After reading the doc, it seems that only section 3 is normative, so I stated that, and labeled all of the major sections as to whether they were normative or not. I made a few changes to section 3 so that the RFC 2119 keywords were include where I though they needed to be, so please read that section again to make sure that these prescriptive wordings make sense. 3. I can’t remember who did the work of writing the doc, so please check the contributors section at the top to make sure I got it right. 4. I made up an abstract from info in the introduction. 5. I split the Introduction and Rationale into 2 separate sections to follow the pattern of other TDWG documents: having an initial introductory section, the technical sections (1.1-1.3) then the main text. This seemed to work out if I split the first paragraph out and used it for the intro and put the rest into rationale. IMPORTANT: I was rigorous in distinguishing between text that referred to abbreviated term IRIs (like dwc:Event) and colloquial use of terms (like “organism”) by putting the abbreviated term IRIs (and literal values) in code markup as has been standard practice in other documents. However, there were many places in the document where it straddled the fence by using capitalized words like “Event”, “Taxon”, or “Organism”. These either were term IRIs or they weren’t. Since they weren’t prefixed by a namespace abbreviation, I assumed they were just nouns and not term IRIs and I changed them to lower case. If that was not the intention and “dwc:Event”, “dwc:Taxon”, and “dwc:Organism” were intended, then they should all be re-capitalized and prepended with a namespace abbreviation. We can discuss what was intended at our meeting tomorrow and I’ll change them as necessary. See you in the morning. Steve -- Steven J.

Hi all, I am very sorry for the short notice. I will not be able to join our meeting. I had to travel to Argentina last minute to help my family. My mom had an emergency but now she is recovering very well so there is nothing to worry about. I will kindly ask you to discuss and review the following documents so we can finally submit the extension. * Implementation report (please review and add yourself as an author here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RFdSHoyzWCQk9qO6uup4xQjWOMzPyBb-A0mcjj9…>) * List of terms (please review all eco: terms here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d…>, tab: complete_term_list_from_JW) * Additional document to better explain eco:isLeastSpecificTargetCategoryQuantityInclusive (please add content, examples, links to other terms, etc. to this <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11fPW4JibRWUnrtTOZwDkAcxo5d-lwnATXyh3xmO…> document). * This will be added as an official document to the list of terms.
