12:27 pdurbin skay: pretty interesting, this comment from yesterday: https://github.com/mozillascience/code-research-object/issues/14#issuecomment-42790756
12:27 pdurbin "see data + datadex, which are now part of the Dat Project"
12:29 pdurbin looks like https://github.com/jbenet is listed at http://dat-data.com/team.html . very cool.
13:26 skay pdurbin: hey, morning. Carl's going to be in your area later in the summer to record http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/BOSC_2014 anyone from dvn ging to be there?
13:26 skay I'd like to go but it is at the same time as scipy
13:34 pdurbin skay: I don't think so but I'm making a little noise about it here: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2014-05-12
13:34 pdurbin this group is more likely to attend than anyone from Dataverse: http://informatics.fas.harvard.edu
13:34 pdurbin but who knows :)
13:35 skay Carl was recording write the docs (ignore the lack of styling http://videos.writethedocs.org/ ) and said that someone did a lightning talk on dataverse -- but I couldn't tell from the description whether they actually meant dataverse
13:38 skay do you know if anyone from dvn was there?
13:43 pdurbin skay: sorry, confused. someone from Datavese gave a talk where now?
13:49 skay pdurbin: someone, who may or may not be from dataverse, gave a lightning talk about dataverse (or made up the name and it is a coincidence)
13:49 skay a lightning talk is an unplanned 5 minute talk
13:50 skay at http://conf.writethedocs.org/
13:54 pdurbin well, we give a lot of talks. not sure which one you mean. but that's ok :)
13:54 pdurbin here was a recent talk, for example: http://www.iq.harvard.edu/news/eleni-castro-shares-news-dataverse-network
13:58 pdurbin and how dare anyone else call themselves "dataverse" ;)
13:58 pdurbin actually, I have half a mind to rename this channel
13:59 skay it's like the whedonverse but for data
13:59 pdurbin since we're calling the software "Dataverse" now, rather than "Dataverse Network"
13:59 pdurbin searchbot: lucky whedonverse
13:59 searchbot pdurbin: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Whedonverse
14:00 pdurbin oh, the buffy guy
14:00 pdurbin yeah, this is exactly what dataverse is trying to be
14:00 pdurbin ;)
14:00 * skay knows him as the firefly guy
14:00 skay dv, like df for science
14:07 pdurbin for science!
14:07 pdurbin :)

17:59 pdurbin jeffspies_: nice to see some updates here: https://github.com/CenterForOpenScience/openscienceframework.org/issues/112
18:01 skay pdurbin: jeffspies_ I did not mean to lick the cookie on that. You should get rliebz to take over
18:03 pdurbin gross
18:03 pdurbin ;)
18:08 pdurbin skay: jeffspies_ is away on IM. may not reply right away
18:10 skay pdurbin: I figured. if he idles he'll probably see the comment in scrollback
18:11 pdurbin yup yup
20:06 pdurbin axfelix: thanks for reading through the "some thinking behind v1 of the Dataverse Data Deposit API (SWORDv2)" email I mentioned at https://lists.iq.harvard.edu/pipermail/pkp-dataverse-integration/2014-May/000073.html
20:08 jwhitney joined #dvn
20:11 pdurbin jwhitney: how much are you working on SWORD stuff these days?
20:12 jwhitney Not much, why?
20:16 pdurbin jwhitney: well, are you familiar with how we are rewriting Dataverse? all the SWORD code I wrote is in old, 3.x code base at https://github.com/IQSS/dvn
20:20 jwhitney right, yes
20:21 pdurbin the new 4.0 code base does not have any SWORD support yet: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse
20:21 pdurbin but this week I'm starting to work on adding it
20:22 pdurbin jeffspies_: I'd like to make sure you're aware of all this too
20:24 pdurbin jwhitney: already I'm realizing that the new 4.0 code base just doesn't have all the... features of the old 3.x code base... for example there's no dataverse.getDepositTermsOfUse() method call yet... which should be used in the Service Document
20:24 pdurbin so it's going to be a work in progress
20:25 pdurbin getting the API to work the same way
20:26 pdurbin jwhitney: but I'd love to have you point the OJS Dataverse plugin at the Dataverse 4.0 SWORD implementation when I'm further along with it
20:27 pdurbin axfelix: or you :)
20:28 axfelix can pretty much test on demand, just ping me :)
20:29 pdurbin axfelix: awesome. thanks. first thing on our end is to figure out which server to deploy to. I'll definitely keep you posted
20:29 jwhitney same here.
20:31 pdurbin jwhitney: great. thanks. again, I really, really don't want to break backwards compatibility. the more eyes on this the better
20:33 jwhitney Sure. There's some cleanup to be done on the plugin before ojs 2.4.5 & testing on 4.0 now would be a good way to make it better at handling the unexpected
20:33 jwhitney are you going to bump the version no. on the api in 4.0?
20:35 pdurbin jwhitney: my plan was to not bump the version number
20:35 jwhitney ok, great
20:35 pdurbin jwhitney: do you get what axfelix was saying about a json sidecar?
20:35 pdurbin (not that I'd call it that) :)
20:36 jwhitney yeah, although have missed discussions on details. How much of what's handled in SWORD now do you want to handle w/ JSON?
20:37 pdurbin jwhitney: this is how I think of it... we want to continue supporting SWORD because it's popular in our world
20:37 pdurbin but
20:37 pdurbin we want dataverse to have more APIs in general
20:37 pdurbin need, I would say
20:38 pdurbin API endpoints
20:38 pdurbin for all sorts of things
20:38 pdurbin let's call it a single API, I've been referring to it as our "native API"
20:38 pdurbin and it uses JSON
20:40 pdurbin SWORD doesn't have any concept of how to create a dataverse
20:40 pdurbin but our native API does
20:40 jwhitney right, ok.
20:40 pdurbin jwhitney: so if you have a need to create a dataverse, I'm going to point you at the native API
20:40 pdurbin rather than trying to figure out how to implement that in the context of the SWORD spec
20:41 pdurbin axfelix: is this what you meant by your comment about json?
20:42 axfelix pretty much, yup
20:42 pdurbin cool
20:46 jeffspies_ pdurbin: yeah, rliebz is starting his summer internship with us soon, so we'll see an increase in movement soon
20:47 pdurbin jeffspies_: ah. great!
20:47 jeffspies_ skay: cookie licking--i like that analogy
20:47 pdurbin lolz
20:48 pdurbin jeffspies_: yeah. what do you think about the future of https://github.com/IQSS/dvn-client-python ?
20:50 jeffspies_ pdurbin: we should be able to continue working with it as we write the python stuff necessary to talk to your api, so i say it looks positive
20:51 pdurbin great!
20:51 pdurbin jeffspies_: I hereby give OSF full authority over pull requests :)
20:52 pdurbin such as this one: merge rliebz/dvn-client-python into IQSS/dvn-client-python · Issue #7 · IQSS/dvn-client-python - https://github.com/IQSS/dvn-client-python/issues/7
20:52 jeffspies_ when robert comes in next, i'll point him to that
20:53 pdurbin perfect
23:12 pdurbin speaking of adding the Data Deposit API into the Dataverse 4.0 code base, here's the ticket I'm using to track this: https://redmine.hmdc.harvard.edu/issues/3385
