Detailed agenda for Sunday Sept 11th, 2011

Revision of the PGDSO, continued (9:00AM - 10:00AM)

Finish up any remaining business from yesterday.

Upcoming release (10:00AM - 11:00AM)

Changes

See details at Summary_of_Changes_to_PO_September_2011

Major changes for this release were:

1. Includsion of Spanish synonyms. They seem to be working fine, except that we still should have the descriptor "(Spanish:)" preceding them. Look up notes from meeting...

Not clear if this is a problem with just the dev browser.

2. Eliminating_Zea/Poaceae_terms_from_PO

3. New annotation files:

• Should we wait for MaizeGDB to send all their new annotations?

• Addition of new annotations for grape (LC working on) and [strawberry]

4. Other changes

• Japanese synonyms?

Additional edits to finish before release

See Items_for_future_meetings:

Images in the PO via Plantsystematics.org (11:00 AM - 12:30 PM)

• from MAG (by email): "I am taking with me not only lots of "annotated" photos for Pankaj but also I will demonstrate everything we did with Plantsystematics.org and the PO photos. We are using the list I translated (the English version of course) and added them as keywords in Plantsystematics.org as a search engine as well."
