Updates on validation status from College Park 2018 Interop to Paris 2019 Interop.
* Basic validation status, what has changed, been fixed, etc?
* What, if anything still needs to be done for perfect validation?
These reports from:
* Euro-VO full searchable registry
- Fully validated. Passes RofR validation.
- New Portal:
http://evor-int.esac.esa.int/evor/
- Remaining issues - how to update automatically? What cadence?
* STScI full searchable registry
- Major improvements made. Still does not pass. Hoping for July/August 2019.
* DaCHS? (not currently listed as full.)
- Not currently listed. Where does RofR get "full" list from?
- Markus: needs to re-register as full in a way that counts as full for RofR
- RofR gets their listing based on another capability than RegTAP?
- Yulie and Theresa and Markus - sort out by email after telecon
* Report from RofR and from the Euro-VO report: Note resolved and/or continuing issues BETWEEN registries, i.e. with conflicting authorities.
- Resolved: 1 found in April 2019 and resolved. Conflict checker run at RofR, no new conflicts found as of 2019-06-12
Updates from RofR
* registry self-identification records
- April, harvested all regardless of validation status
- Tools exist for harvesting all registries. No automated pipeline (yet).
- Remaining questions: How often should we validate all registries? Send validation automatically report or no? Only records that validate?
- Markus: proposing reharvest registry self-ID every day but validate less often? Because validation of an entire registry is expensive but harvesting ID record is fast.
- Yulie: in case of connection issues / missing documents: follow up by hand, don't automatically remove anything. Re-harvest weekly to start. Can run conflict checker more often (daily).
- Menelaus: currently doing just before the interop.
* What, if any, updates were made to extra validation rules
- additional resource validations beyond XSD. Action to RofR: add to RofR page somewhere before next interop or validation report.
* What, if any, updates were made to standards records as included in the RofR
- VOResource 1.1 copy in RofR needs updated.
- Action on Markus: put newest VOResource 1.1 on document repository.
- RofR needs to change how it looks for full searchable registries to match RI 1.1. (Action on Peter codewise. Yulie, Theresa, Markus, Peter follow up by email)
Validation update re # in identifiers issue.
* IdentifierURI - should STAY reference to resource record. without #
* TapRegExt anyURI - there is an errata for allowing anyURI (i.e. allownig #) in places where the # has been a conflict
* Action on Theresa: start email thread - Markus, Peter, Yulie, etc: what newest document/standard/xsd versions in sync will make this problem go away.
