OK, so it seems the options are 1. do our own thing on AWS 2. bionet, Don's suggestion 3. google groups I worry about taking too long deciding as SF may start auto-booting people off the different lists soon. I worry particularly about 1 as this will take additional effort and it will be easy for this to fall through the cracks. I'm also not sure how much maintenance is required. I haven't heard any objection to 2. There seems to be sufficient voices against 3 to veto it (though personally I have had none of the mentioned issues, and for the OBO lists we're using this because it's the path of least resistance) On Wed, Jul 5, 2017 at 12:28 PM, Don Gilbert <gil...@gm...> wrote: > Dear all, > > Bionet still is running at http://www.bio.net/ > providing open discussion/news for biology groups, including still some of > the model organisms (arabidopis, zebrafish, and add-ons like corn, > medicago, annelida, ..).

I think these are great. Do you think, in addition, having standard gitter channels underneath GMOD might also make sense? Not sure if that is overkill or not.

Dear all, Bionet still is running at http://www.bio.net/ providing open discussion/news for biology groups, including still some of the model organisms (arabidopis, zebrafish, and add-ons like corn, medicago, annelida, ..). This is GNU-Mailman mailing list software (same as sourceforge was/is). It is self-service mostly, I maintain the hardware/software, keep spammers at bay, moderaters manage accounts and moderation :) While this is now low-key, not many new folks find it in this age of twitter/facebook/googroups, it continues to work and serve mail for those who continue to use it (it still has Usenet cross links but not many still use Usenet, ie. twitter without ads or owners). Genbank/NCBI folks still use their bionet.genbank to announce data updates. Bionet was created/funed by Human Genome project way back (1988?) so it has been up and running a while now .. longer than Google, Sourceforge, or even NCBI. This isn't a push for GMOD to use, but if any among you want to look and try, there is a "new group" form http://net.bio.net/biomail/create and you can look around at other groups traffic. About 100 messages / month spread over about 25 still active groups. Flybase, Wormbase, Yeastbase (sorry mike) opted to run their own a while back but those bionet.dros, bionet.celegans, bionet.yeast lists still exist. I own the bio.net domain (handed on from stanford, then in uk), and could work out with Indiana U netowkr folks a gmod.org domain linkage if you need that. - Don Gilbert On Wed, Jul 5, 2017 at 2:33 PM, Scott Cain <sc...@sc...> wrote: > Thanks for the feedback about Google Groups.

Thanks for the feedback about Google Groups. I had some vague uneasiness about using it anyway, but since it was "free" I was willing to at least entertain the idea. No more entertaining. While I'm sure I could set up mailman on an AWS instance (and it probably wouldn't even need to be that big), I am worried about such things as security and the need for on going maintenance--I already don't have as much time as I would like to work on GMOD stuff. If mailman becomes a time sink, that would be a real drag. I guess I'll have to spend a little time thinking/reading about it.

Hi All, I recommend strongly against migrating to Google Groups. We tried Google Groups for the GCC2015 Mailing lists and we had lots of trouble with academic institutions silently blocking emails from google groups. The only workaround we could find was to also subscribe people with a non-work email address. That was an enormous pain and it wasn't what people wanted. January-July 2015 is the only time I've used Google Groups extensively, and that experience led me to conclude that I won't try it again. Unfortunately, I don't have a recommended alternative. GMOD and Galaxy have been using Nabble for years to archive lists, but I don't have any experience with them hosting email lists. Does anyone know how hard it is to maintain our own mailman installation on GMOD.org. *In summary: Google Groups: Don't do it.* Dave C On Wed, Jul 5, 2017 at 10:37 AM, Scott Cain <sc...@sc...> wrote: > Ah, I hadn't even thought about the idea of going the G suite for > education route.

OH! I totally forgot about this: gmod.org already has a free google apps account from before they started charging for it. I suspect that's all we needed to make groups under the gmod.org domain.

Ah, I hadn't even thought about the idea of going the G suite for education route.

Agreed. I saw then ignored that email from SF. Google Groups can be a little finicky sometimes but generally works well for most users. If we want to corral lists under the gmod.org domain, someone would need to petition Google for a G Suite for Education account. That might be more overhead than is necessary to just get some core lists up and running before the end of the month.

Dear GMOD community, This is to announce an alpha version of a new genetic map viewer, CMap-js. We intend this as a replacement for CMap, which has served researchers well for a long time, but which lacks the kind of interactivity that modern client-side web technologies allow – and which won’t scale well with larger datasets. With the caveat (again) that this is an early-release version, and not feature-complete ... Check out the look-and-feel of the application here: https://legumefederation.org (from the "CMap-js" button). Try clicking and dragging over the blue map background and on the marker lists or the QTL features on the right. Get the code here: https://github.com/LegumeFederation/cmap-js. We welcome developers to join in - or users to send feature requests. Some of our design objectives are: flexible configuration; simple data formats (accepting CMap tabular data for backward compatibility), ability to pass in data via API (no database requirement and including cross-site or user generated maps), minimal use of external libraries, ease of installation, high interactivity (panning, zooming, clicking, adding or removing maps, etc.), and scalability to a very large number of markers. Theses structural goals are in addition to the ability to compare maps, ability to display region data (QTLs, GWAS, etc.), the ability to represent genetic-genomic comparisons (both within and cross-species), and the ability to represent relations between features for any given map. We still have quite a large set of features to add, but please let us know if there are things that you would particularly like to see. This is primarily the work of Andrew Wilkey and Alex Rice, and has been funded by the NSF Legume Federation project, https://www.nsf.gov/ awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=1444806. -- - Andrew Wilkey T: +1-515-203-3774 E: aw...@ia...

I think it's time to ditch sourceforge altogether. Of course, we ditched them some time ago as a hosted VCS and ticket system, moving to github, but we left the mail lists in place. Now it's time to move these too: - Recently I got an email from sourceforge asking me to confirm I wanted to remain on all sf mailing lists (non-confirmation resulting in automatic unsubscription within the month). It looked a bit phishy and I suspect many people will either not click or will not see the email, and will silently drop off the lists. - it is now no longer possible for list admins to manage members! - more spam seems to have been getting through Unless anyone has a better suggestion, it seems like migrating to google groups is the best solution. This is what we're doing with the OBO lists: https://github.com/OBOFoundry/OBOFoundry.github.io/issues/435 This may be a good time to do some spring cleaning, consolidate some groups, formally abandon some others. And perhaps we can breathe some life into some existing ones? gmod-architecture seems to get no love - yet this is at a time when the model organism databases are consolidating their architecture and community discussions would be most welcome! Here is the list of lists on SF:  A lot of these are either dead or were never really alive A curated list of GMOD lists: http://gmod.org/wiki/GMOD_Mailing_Lists |

Hi Anton, We've already got folks from the Galaxy Project, Reactome, InterMine, and BioPython on board. And now several more folks are on the Gitter channel as well. I think we may end up with too many people involved. *(But that's the kind of problem I want to have! :-)* Also, the project isn't about biology per se. It's about finding papers that reference software projects often in indirect ways. The software can be from any domain. And I would argue that identifying where to search and what to search for is up to the people using the software (for example, me), rather than the person developing the software (Chris). Questions? I suggest continuing this conversation on gitter <https://gitter.im/references-tracking/Lobby>.

Hi! We do not know each other yet, so I will briefly introduce myself. I'm Chris, a Polish PhD candidate in Computer Science field at AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow. In my work I deal with the broad concept of artificial intelligence. In particular the semantic web technologies (RDF, SPARQL, Linked Data) and the ability to support a group of knowledge engineers who create knowledge inside (semantic) wiki systems - in my PhD I propose some methods and prototypical tools for quality management, change management and motivation. I have also finished the Master's degree in Psychology and as a result I also deal with Affective Computing field. I know, I'm quite far away from bioinformatics :) so, what I am doing here? As a part of Google Summer of Code <https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/> program I will prepare a tool to keep track of publications that reference a specific project (project's papers, tools, etc). I think that at the end it will be a quite good tool that any researcher can use for dealing with the task, regardless of the research field. Specifically, it will be a set of Python scripts + GUI that will do four tasks: 1) performs database search for new projects (search terms), 2) handles alerts for updating the results later, 3) gives the user the possibility to manually annotate results (e.g. as irrelevant), 4) generates citation reports (e.g. list of papers that cite our project during last year). If you are interested in such a tool, do not hesitate to: * read the more detailed description placed in the project's github wiki: https://github.com/kkutt/references-tracking/wiki/Tool-Description * discuss it on the Gitter channel: https://gitter.im/references- tracking/Lobby or simply write me an e-mail We already have interest from members of the Galaxy, Reactome, InterMine, and BioPython communities. I am waiting for your comments :) If you are not interested in a project, maybe your colleagues are? :) Best regards, Chris Kutt |

Hi All, As you may have heard the Open Genome Informatics proposal <http://gmod.org/wiki/GSoC> was accepted for GSoC 2017. That proposal covers all the GMOD projects, including Galaxy. One of projects in the proposal was: *Project Publication Reference Tracking (Galaxy/Reactome) <http://gmod.org/wiki/GSOC_Project_Ideas_2017>* Assuming that this item gets prioritized for funding, and that we find a great student, then this will be worked on this summer. *Hopefully we'll end up with a great tool that any open source community can use to keep track of publications that reference it.* *If having a tool that helps you track publications that use your resource interests you then please keep reading below. * If not, then thanks for your time, Dave C *Building a community* I've been reading the GSoC Mentoring Manual <http://write.flossmanuals.net/gsoc-mentoring/> (one of the authors is Duke Leto) and one of the things it suggests is getting the student engaged with the community. The community for this proposal isn't Galaxy or Reactome or GMOD per se (although GMOD is pretty close). The community is folks at open source projects that want to track references to their projects (which includes those who run bio DBs, public Galaxy Servers, and the various GMOD component projects). I'd like to build that community now. *If you are interested in this topic, and maybe in helping to provide guidance for a GSoC student then please let me know.** If I hear from enough people I'll create a mailing list. If not, we'll just use email (and probably a Gitter channel). Also, if anyone knows of tool that already does this, please let me know. I don't want to reinvent the wheel this summer. Galaxy does this using lots of email alerts, CiteULike, and some custom scripts (they work sort of, but oh the horror!). I've got a 6 page doc describing the current process that I've sent to every potential GSoC student who has contacted me. First thing I'll do is send that to those that are interested. Thanks, Dave C. * You can also post to the whole list, but I'm trying to cut down on noise in people's email. -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/ |

The latest one,<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/dbpedia-version-2016-04>_2016-04_ <http://wiki.dbpedia.org/dbpedia-version-2016-04>, featured a new Wikipedia references & citation dataset for the English Wikipedia. In addition, we separated the data which we received from heuristic-based infobox extractors from the already mapped and quality-controlled data to remove low quality data and avoid duplicates & low quality information. We improved on our<http://www.semantic-web-journal.net/content/wikidata-through-eyes-dbpedia-1>_Wikidata extraction_ <http://www.semantic-web-journal.net/content/wikidata-through-eyes-dbpedia-1> and mapped all our data to Wikidata-based DBpedia IRIs. Wikidata will become more and more the core of future extractions. *Consortium partners for EU and national projects - *Since its conception DBpedia has never been funded directly, but was supported only by individual tasks in different projects and by the spirit of volunteers. With the establishment of the DBpedia Association, we are now in a position to receive direct funding and are eligible as a full consortium partner for EU and International projects. Furthermore, we are able to mediate trusted partners - who have worked with us in the past and contributed greatly to DBpedia - for national proposals in over 30 countries worldwide (contact via reply to this email.) *Events - *In addition to our participation in the 12th edition of the SEMANTiCS, in the 19th International Conference on Business Information Systems and in the Google Summer of Code project, we arranged three DBpedia community meetings, in The Hague, Leipzig and Sunnyvale, California. In order to get updates on our events and projects, stay tuned and check the<http://blog.dbpedia.org/>_DBpedia blog_ <http://blog.dbpedia.org/>. Please check out the dates to the two new DBpedia meetings below. *Links - *We have revived the portal, that allows the LOD community to contribute their links, so we can include them in DBpedia Releases. If your database links to DBpedia, you can submit your links here:<https://github.com/dbpedia/links>_https://github.com/dbpedia/links_ . We provide additional support for this and also provide a service, that - once you have contributed your links - will tell you which data is linking to your knowledge base via DBpedia<http://downloads.dbpedia.org/links/backlinks/>_http://downloads.dbpedia.org/links/backlinks/_, available only for Association members. /We would like to thank again all people who were involved to enable this!/ *2017 - New Year - New Opportunities* To make 2017 as great as 2016 we have already reviewed community feedback and worked out some plans to bring the DBpedia community closer together whereas we attain our goals and follow our visions. Below are the most important points for 2017. *User Survey - *Sören Auer and the DBpedia Board prepared a survey to assess the direction of DBpedia and the DBpedia Association. We would like to know what you think should be our priorities. Please take a minute and vote here:<https://goo.gl/forms/NQxrMWskcKlZJAU63>_https://goo.gl/forms/NQxrMWskcKlZJAU63_ *User support *- We set up a new portal to streamline support requests for DBpedia. We would encourage you to submit all questions to<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/support>_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/support_. And … if you are already an experienced DBpedia user, you can sign up and answer questions and get kudos. Upon request, we can issue a certificate for your CV. During the course of 2017 we will also provide a priority support channel for members and Chapters. *Save the Date* *- Galway 21 Jun and Amsterdam 14 Sep*. DBpedia will be part of the_Language, Data and Knowledge (LDK) conference_ <http://ldk2017.org/> in Galway, Ireland (*Submission open until Feb 16th*). This new biennial conference series aims at bringing together researchers from across disciplines. The DBpedia community will have a full day event on 21th of June 2017. Also during the<http://2017.semantics.cc/>_SEMANTiCS 2017 in Amsterdam_ <http://2017.semantics.cc/>, Sep 11-14 (*Submission open until May 17th or June 23rd*), the DBpedia community will get together on the 14th of September for a DBpedia community meeting. Updates will be posted in the respective<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/events>_events section_ <http://wiki.dbpedia.org/events> and the<http://blog.dbpedia.org/>_blog_ <http://blog.dbpedia.org/>. *TextExt: DBpedia’s Open Text Extraction Challenge -* (_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/textext_) As DBpedia and Wikidata currently focus primarily on representing factual knowledge as contained in Wikipedia infoboxes, we created the DBpedia Open Text Extraction Challenge. Participants are asked to submit their engines that extract facts and knowledge from Wikipedia article texts to dramatically broaden and deepen the amount of structured DBpedia/Wikipedia data. *Community coordination* - *You'd like to get involved in DBpedia? *We set up a new Get Involved section. If you are interested in details or would like to get in touch with the DBpedia community, please read here:<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/get-involved>_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/get-involved_ *Community chairs *- The active community of developers and engineers comes together in the DBpedia community committee. We will build up this committee with the help of Pablo Mendes and Magnus Knuth who will serve as provisional chairs. The committee can be joined by recommendation only based on merit. If you would like to get in contact with the community committee please check here:<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/about/contact>_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/about/contact_ Two delegates from the community committee are elected chairs and will take seats at the Board of Trustees. This board is the main decision-making body of the DBpedia Association and oversees the association and its work, as its ultimate corporate authority. There are four board meetings per year, please have a look at the public minutes here:<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/board-minutes>_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/board-minutes_ *Technical development I: Wikidata - *Many DBpedians are excited about the progress<https://www.wikidata.org/>_Wikidata_ <https://www.wikidata.org/> is making and we are planning to use Wikidata’s data as the new core for our extraction and fusion. This means that in future releases we will fuse data from Wikidata with the usual data we extract from over 100 Wikipedia language editions with additional data from other high quality LOD sources and do the usual refinement, typing and quality-control. We hope that this will provide an unprecedented knowledge graph with superior coverage, completeness and correctness. *Technical development II: UnifiedViews - *our plan to achieve the above mentioned fusion will be realized by an active collaboration with the<https://www.semantic-web.at/>_Semantic Web Company (SWC)_ <https://www.semantic-web.at/>, where DBpedia developers work side by side with the<http://www.poolparty.biz/>_PoolParty Semantic Suite_ <http://www.poolparty.biz/> technical team to add scalability, provenance tracking and linking/fusion capabilities into the Data Processing Units of the<https://www.poolparty.biz/unifiedviews/>_UnifiedViews_ <https://www.poolparty.biz/unifiedviews/> workflows. *Technical development III - *For 2017, we hope to establish further hands-on collaboration with companies and organisations to push all aspects of DBpedia, in particular: search and visualisation, ontology maintenance, querying and indexing crawling data from web and social media. We also work together with our members to prioritize on integrating data that they think useful. *Membership* - If you would like to become a member of the DBpedia Association, please check all benefits here:<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/membership>_http://wiki.dbpedia.org/membership_. If you require any further information, feel free to contact us by replying to this email. We are already very excited to spend time with you on further community meetings and to publish new DBpedia releases. All the best, Julia, Dimitris & Sebastian DBpedia Association |

All, We will again be putting forward an application to be a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2017 students. "Google Summer of Code is a global program that offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source software projects. Through Google Summer of Code, accepted student applicants are paired with a mentor or mentors from the participating projects, thus gaining exposure to real-world software development scenarios and the opportunity for employment in areas related to their academic pursuits. In turn, the participating projects are able to more easily identify and bring in new developers. Best of all, more source code is created and released for the use and benefit of all.” https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/ Our team name since 2011 has been Open Genome Informatics. Since 2011, the Open Genome Informatics team has served as an "umbrella organization" to a variety of open bioinformatics projects, including GMOD and its software projects -- GBrowse, JBrowse, etc.; Galaxy; PortEco; Reactome; SeqWare; WormBase; DockStore and others. I’ll update the Open Genome Informatics page: http://gmod.org/wiki/GSoC, in preparation for applying for this year’s Google Summer of Code. Call for 2017 Project Ideas and Mentors: We are seeking project ideas to post and attract talented students to this year’s Summer of Code competition. If you have a project idea for which you would like to mentor a student, please contact Robin Haw, cc’ing Scott Cain and Marc Gillespie (emails above). Mentoring organization application deadline: February 9, 2017 If you have any questions please let me, Scott and Marc know. Thanks, Robin Haw |

Hi All, There are two big things going on in Galaxy right now: 1) *There's a big Galaxy gathering in Melbourne Australia next month*. This includes a two day meeting, a day of user training, and a 4 day Galaxy Administrator Training workshop (only the 2nd time we've offered that). The announcement is here <http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/Galaxy-Australasia-Meeting-Update-Register-now-Poster-Abstracts-Training-td4670424.html>. (And please help spread the word about this, even if you don't go.) 2) *Training topic nominations for the 2017 Galaxy Community Conference are now open*. If you have a topic you would like to see covered (or that you would like to present), then please nominate it here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe6IeP655G0JXB4pHoSXY6A9brZ6kfiRbC1n6Wx9vylk6fKyA/viewform>. We are in the South of France this year.* And, if you want to keep up on what's going on in the Galaxy, I recommend subscribing to the Galaxy Announce mailing list <https://lists.galaxyproject.org/listinfo/galaxy-announce>. Thanks, Dave C * Don't let this affect your decision to attend at all. :-) -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/ |
