Upgrade schedule for the XServe: * Wednesday: reinstall Snow Leopard Server, user accounts (__Børre__) * Thursday: test the new services (__Børre__) * Friday: compile new spellers (__Tomi__) To accommodate future enhancements in different directions (in rough order of importance): # test bench for all parts of our language technology efforts ## test bench enhanced, but not yet complete # set up the Snow Leopard Server features for collaborative support: ## iCal server / group calendars ## wiki # wiki? on G5 (is part of Snow Leopard Server) or other web-based documentation # improve Forrest stability and i18n support ( the divvun crashes) # reorganise the documentation: ## differ between target groups ## get better grouping ## decide what to write in forrest and what in wiki (cf. [Apertium|http://www.apertium.org/] and [http://xixona.dlsi.ua.es/apertium/]) for a similar split) ## update/add missing parts # migrate lexc lexicons to XML, splitting the task ## Name lexica (the Name project) ## Dictionaries (already in XML, task is to integrate them) ## At least migrate the lexc open POSes (Komi as a pilot case) # change the look of the documentation web # corpus content moved to Max Planck repositories?

Seems much lighter and easier to work with. Instead of building our own webforms and back-end update scripts, use XForms with a premade connection to our xml db. Orbeon XForms is such a tool (open source). From the meeting with the terminology and IT teams last week: * no major rework on the present search interface now * no work on the editing section; instead: * add existing lists of sanctioned terminology as separate term entities * add a dictionary if we can make one with sufficient quality This means the following tasks: * find already approved lists, in paper or electronic form (__term team__) * convert paper lists to electronic lists (__term team__) * convert lists to standard XML (__Sjur, Tomi__) * add prepared lists to risten.no (__Sjur, Tomi__) __TODO:__ # send eXist log files to Ciprian (__Sjur__) # fix i18n bug in risten.no/G5 (so they will work without the proper locale request) (__Sjur__) # fix bugs in lexc2xml; add comments to the log element (__Saara__) # finish first version of the editing (__Sjur__) # test editing of the xml files. If ok, then: (__Sjur, Thomas, Trond__) # make terms-smX.xml <=== automatically from propernoun-sme-lex.xml (add {{nob}} as well) (the morphological section should be kept intact, in e.g. propernoun-sme-morph.txt) (__Sjur, Saara__) # convert propernoun-($lang)-lex.txt to a derived file from common xml files (__Sjur, Tomi, Saara__) # implement data synchronisation between [risten.no|http://www.risten.no] and the cvs repo, and possibly other servers (ie the G5 as an alternative server to the public risten.no - it might be faster and better suited than the official one; also local installations could be treated the same way) # start to use the xml file as source file # clean terms-sme.xml such that all names have the correct tag for their use (e.g. @type=secondary) (__Thomas, linguists__) # merge placenames which are errouneously in different entries: e.g. Helsinki, Helsingfors, Helsset (__linguists__) # publish the name lexicon on risten.no (__Sjur__) # add missing parallel names for placenames (__linguists__) # add informative links between first names like Niillas and Nils (__linguists__) !!Dictionaries A new {{sma:nob-swe}} version coming within an hour. A stressless version should be ready for Feb. 6. Also {{kom:fin-eng}} is coming soon, as well as a first {{fkv:nob}} dictionary. Noone has answered the type question regarding the {{sma:nob-swe}} dictionary.
