[Asis-standards] minutes of Meeting in St Louis

[Mark Needleman]

Folks

below are the minutes of the standards committee meeting in St Louis - thanks to Gail Thoorburg (who wasn't even there and participating by phone) for taking them

A couple of other things:


1)      I am leaving my job in Florida at the end of 2015 - Im still willing to be chair of the committee but my plans are a little unclear at this point so I thought it might be better for someone whose situation is more stable to take over (or become vice-Chair for awhile) Timothy Dickey said he would consider it but if anyone else has the desire to be chair let me know in case Timothy decides he cant do it

2)      it has been proposed that we do an issue of the ASIST Bulliten (probably 3rd quarter 2016) on standards issues

some of the possible subjects that were discussed at the meeting in St Louis were:

Dublin Core
Bibliographic Road Map
RDF 1.1
JATS 1.1
KBART
JSON _ LD
EAD Archive
VCARD
W3C new standards
Bibframe
NISO update

If you have any ideas for topics and also are interested in writing an article (or know someone who would make a good author because of their involvement with a particular standard) please post ideas (and names) to the list

Ill be sending out a note soon about upcoming votes

Good seeing at least a few of you in St Louis

Present:   Mark Needleman,  Marcia Zeng ,  [visitor..... ] , Marge Hlava ,  Timothy Dickey

Intro for visitor  as to what the Committee does......    Questions as to what standards would seem relevant to ASIS&T ?   Mark/Marge commented.     They most often start with a "Z".       ISO/NISO/ANSI ...    World wide web consortium ...,   W3C.     Issues with proprietary standards, e.g. Adobe....


1.      Need for Chair when Mark leaves his organization at end of year.    Maybe co-chair for the hand-off ?     Suggested Timothy Dickey

2.       Upcoming votes,  end of November



Discussion:

Marge:   didn't think anything really contentious coming up this.   Bibliographic roadmap is next big thing coming up    (Marty Heinman and Marge are going to chair the committee on this   (Z39.19 on her top list).



Sponsoring an issue on Standards ?   Marge asked.      Mark concurred, said he could contribute.      [Comments from Marcia...]   --     perhaps timeframe of October/ November?   If in July,  need manuscripts couple of months before that.    Marge suggested a committee to come up with the scope of the Issue.    Mark will send out announcement  solicitly input....



Timothy arrived,  and will definitely think over taking this role....



Google Scholar and its role...
