Re: [CODE4LIB] TemaTres 1.2, web tool to manage controlled vocabularies, has been released
Hi dear Eric, ... today we have released TemaTres keywords Distiller in google code. You can download it from: http://code.google.com/p/tematres-keywords-distiller/ TemaTres Keywords Distiller is a php tool to extract terms from a text and use it to obtain keywords from a specific controlled vocabulary. You can do automatic categorization of texts based on controlled vocabularies managed by TemaTres. For some documentation about Web Services-based API, there are a explanation in http://www.r020.com.ar/tematres/wiki/doku.php?id=en:tematres:web_services_terminologicos Or, you can invoke any TemaTres web services without arguments, eg: http://www.r020.com.ar/tematres/services.php Please ... let me know about any problem or doubt :-) My apologies about my english best regards --- diego ferreyra http://www.vocabularyserver.com/ http://www.r020.com.ar/ 2011/1/10 Eric Lease Morgan emor...@nd.edu: On Jan 8, 2011, at 10:31 AM, diego ferreyra wrote: We have the glad to announce the release of Tematres 1.2.

[CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Community Sponsorship
Great job Code4Lib! You've collectively contributed $960 towards the sponsorship of our 2011 conference! The goal was arbitrarily set at $1000, so we're only $40 short of that... salesmans_voiceAnyway want to pitch in those final dollars? 5, 10, 20?/salesmans_voice Also, curious as to whether folks think we should up the goal or stay with $1000. I'm thinking we could take the answer from whether anyone pitches in after we've reached the $1000 point. If someone contributes something over $1000, we can take that as a vote to bump up the goal a bit ($500). Otherwise, given a little time for people to think about it, I'll just go ahead and send these funds into Indiana as The Code4Lib Community sponsorship. On a personal note, I think this level of participation is really cool. Thanks to Dan for the idea to have a community sponsorship! It's been fun to pitch in and see others do the same... Kevin
[CODE4LIB] Yay, Code4Lib! Sponsorship goal accomplished!
Hi Code4Lib, You all are faster than I am. In the process of typing up that last email, someone contributed enough to put us at the 100% mark. Yay, Code4Lib! So, if we want to continue collecting (say set the goal at $1500), someone else pitch in and we'll keep the fun going... :-) Kevin

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Community Sponsorship
I'm honestly not sure why we are fund-driving this from individuals, when the conference is, according to it's organizers, already sufficiently funded. So, no, I see no reason to up the goal.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Community Sponsorship
I think this is a good point to make (about the host saying they aren't lacking at this point)... for me (just one person speaking), this isn't about this year's conference being strapped for funds. Personally, I think this is in part a gauge to see whether this might work as a future method for (partially) funding the conference (...though, admittedly, one year's success may not be an indicator of an ongoing success). It's also worth noting that money not used this year gets passed to next year's host, so even if this year's host doesn't use this money the conference is still benefiting and perhaps it reduces the amount of other types of sponsorship we need for next year (or alternatively gives us a buffer for a low sponsorship year). And, I think, like many other things in Code4Lib, it's an experiment... Lastly, it's just a nice way to express one's appreciation for the conference... it's not going to waste even if it's not used this year. Those are all just my personal opinions... others contributing might have different reasons or motivations...

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Community Sponsorship
Oh, and we've had three more people contribute since my emails, so I'll take that as a vote to push it up to $1500 (which I won't get to until later today). As with anything in Code4Lib, it's an optional involvement... no obligation to participate. Different people may also participate for their own reasons...

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Presenters - a shared presentation machine? really????
Might be worth finding some people from previous years; I think previous years managed recording of presentation projection (if not live screencast), despite presenters swapping out machines.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Presenters - a shared presentation machine? really????
I had a similar response. If the shared computer is exactly like mine, I might consider it. I have used a gadget called a TwinPact that sits between the 'puter and the projector and sucks out the video. It also has primitive, but useful, switching between sources and audio integration.
