09-07-2020 – first metadata draft

Attendees

  • Julieta
  • Emilio
  • Robin
  • Moe (minutes)

Notes

  • Hello, arriving, small talk
  • Quick repetition of the scope
  • Update: I'll pitch this to OKH this Friday as v2.0 of that standard
  • decision about file formats (see the issue)
    • → use TOML only for starters & keep it simple
  • decision about file name & location convention (see the issue)
    • → approved
  • Looking onto the scope and the first draft … does this all make sense? (see the issue)
    • → formulate scope in a much easier way
      • who's the end user?
      • what's problem it solves?
    • → add information about the version of the metadata standard used
  • Any idea where we can find function (not usage) categories? I wouldn't like to create a category tree from scratch. No one needs that.
    • question for wikidata
    • search through wikipedia
    • ask IEEE
  • Gathering sample data:
    • OSH should
      • be well/completely documented
      • have an active community behind it
    • → I'll present these as flagship projects wherever I can
    • Who should I contact/approach?
      • GOSH forum discussion with docubricks
      • DIN SPEC mailing list
      • → upload CSV + open issue linking to this CSV so people know where to add projects
  • Someone knows someone from Wikidata who's interested in organising OSH in Wikidata? Would be great to collaborate (also from the OKH side)
    • Who should I contact/approach?
      • thanks @thessaly ! :) (I won't post the names here for privacy reasons)
  • Ciao Cacao & have a nice Thursday

25-06-2020 – first metadata draft

Attendees

  • Robin
  • Moe (minutes)

Notes

  • Where exactly is new, own vocabulary ontology necessary and where can I just use workarounds & templates for data input?
    • → will be checked by Moe in the cooperation with Wikimedia Deutschland
  • How does referencing to other DBs work? as e.g. for function categories defined in Wikidata?
    • → answered by Wikimedia in a previous meeting
    • we'll squash all the data into one Wikibase instance; this makes life a lot easier; maintenance of different ontology modules or subdatasets is still possible
    • anyway, wikibase offers special features to query other wikibase instances, even to combine different instances into one query; forgot the specific term; the wikimedia community can provide details :)
  • Can we trace different versions of OSH with the given metadata? (e.g. crawling URL indicates whether or not OSH is a variant or different version of already existing OSH)
    • ✓ yes, yey
  • In a query, can we get the file format from a file link?
    • ✓ yes, yey
  • Looking onto the scope and the first draft … does this all make sense? (see the issue)
  • ✓ yes, yey
  • cooperation with Wikimedia Deutschland
    • create initial test data set
      • 50…150 items (instances) by the end of CW 27

30-04-2020 – little kickoff

Attendees

  • Julieta
  • Robin
  • Erik
  • Moe (minutes)

forgot to invite: Emilio (sorry, Emilio)

Notes

  • first draft for DB structure
    • various specified DBs with own onthologies, compatible with each other so that queries across different DBs can be performed
    • DB for OSH-Modules (target for v1.0 of this wikibase instance)
      • = OSH assemblies
      • which consist of
        • other OSH-Modules
        • OSH Components
        • standard parts
        • proprietary parts
    • DB for standard parts (optional target for v1.0)
    • ideas for further DBs:
      • manufacturers (to enable decentralised production of OSH as manufacturer metadata can be mapped over OSH metadata (tolerances, dimensions, material etc.))
      • funding programes (matchmaking between funders and cool projects)
      • scientific publications (e.g. in cooperation with Journal of Open Hardware)
      • connection to Wikidata (to connect technical documentation with real data :) )
  • standards are the backbone of this structure
    • technical documentation: DIN SPEC 3105 & TsDC
    • metadata: Open Know-How manifest v1.0 (+v2.0 (or hard fork) see below ↓)
      • first draft for metadata (and its structure) of OSH hereL <src/spec/okh.md>
      • will be pitched to Open Know-How working group
  • we will make use of
    • guidelines & standard modules for onthologies (thanks @Julieta! 🎉)
    • https://www.wbstack.com/ in order to test our onthology approaches

TODOs

  • @Moe sends a short project description and mail addresses of the working group to @Julieta, so…
  • @Julieta creates an instance using https://www.wbstack.com/) where we all create accounts, and…
  • @Julieta connects us/@Moe to a group of smart people who designed guidelines & standard modules for onthologies (Cristina Sarasua, ETH Zurich)
  • @Moe invites everyone to GitHub repo
