Plans for Upcoming Release #19
Timeline for Release: Goal is mid December 2012 Release_19
Priorities for inclusion in the Release:
- Revisions to PSDS:
- Fruit development stages
- New datasets: grape, cotton, rice
LC: will send MAG and YY a list of the new PAE terms that we need translations for.
Goal is to complete the edits and annotation sets by Friday Dec 7th, then load the database over the weekend onto beta. That will give us the following week to troubleshoot issues and hopefully have it completed by Dec 14th.

PRO-PO-GO meeting, May 15-16th 2013
Please see this page for more information: PRO-PO-GO_Meeting
Location: Buffalo, NY
Dates: May 15-16th, 2013.
Goals:
- To educate members of the PRO, PO and GO communities concerning developments in each of the three ontologies, with a view to enhanced coordination
- To identify potentially fruitful applications which such enhanced coordination might bring
- To enhance the Protein Ontology treatment of plant-related proteins
- To address coordination issues between the GO and PO, for example as concerns treatment of development stages
- To further those aspects of CROP which relate to PRO and GO [this is assuming that PRO is included as one of the external ontologies in CROP]
Tentative participant list:
PO Consortium members: Pankaj Jaiswal and Laurel Cooper (OSU), Dennis Stevenson (NYBG), Barry Smith (Buffalo), others?
GO Consortium members: Jane Lomax (EBI), Judith Blake (JAX), Alex Diehl (Buffalo) who else?
PRO Consortium members: Cathy Wu, Alan Ruttenberg (Buffalo)
BS would like a list of who we would like to include in the meeting and whose costs can be covered by PO
