[CODE4LIB] PBCore RDF ontology hackathon before Code4Lib
Greetings, I'm emailing you on behalf of the Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA) PBCore Advisory Subcommittee to tell you about an event we are coordinating to take place in Portland, Oregon before Code4Lib -- to develop an RDF ontology for PBCore. We will be meeting an an airbnb about 4 miles from the conference hotel on February 7-8, 2015. PBCore is a metadata schema for audiovisual materials and was developed about 10 years ago by public broadcasters. Since then, the XML schema has been revised multiple times and adopted by a number of archives and archivists in the moving image archival community. The PBCore Advisory Subcommittee recently held a how-to and why-to webinar, which you can watch here: https://vimeo.com/aapb/pbcore. We welcome anyone else who wants to join us and take part in the PBCore RDF ontology hackathon. If you're interested, email me off list and I'll give you more info. Best, Casey Casey E.

My library isn't letting me sign up for this until 2015 because bureaucracy. Is there any way the registration can continue to be open through say, the first week of next year? I realize the whole thing may well be sold out by then anyway.

Lack of Thursday overnight is going to be a big deal, especially with the west coast location. Any chance we could get in touch with the hotel?

Re: [CODE4LIB] Registration for Code4Lib 2015 in Portland Oregon is NOW OPEN!
The block rates aren't available for Friday (they are Sunday night through Thursday night), so if you are selecting Friday, you might be hitting a snag. It's also possible that the block is filled for thursday. We can contact the hotel about expanding the block, and getting a current report on where we stand. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday's blocks are larger than the number of currently registered attendees, so you should still be able to book then. I would also recommend giving the hotel a call and seeing what they can do for you about good rates for the weekend. - Tom On Mon, Dec 8, 2014 at 10:11 AM, Collier, Aaron acoll...@calstate.edu wrote: This is the problem I had.

Any chance we could get in touch with the hotel? It might not be that the hotel is booked up, but rather that it won't allow us to order that night on the block. That seems to be the case (i.e. the block for Thursday night is sold out). We're working on getting info and expanding the block as needed.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Registration for Code4Lib 2015 in Portland Oregon is NOW OPEN!
I'm told we're not currently out of block space for any of Sunday-Thursday nights. If you're having trouble, calling the hotel directly is probably the best solution. We'll do our best to stay on top of the block status and expand it where needed. The hotel has been very flexible thus far, and I get the impression they would be glad if we booked them solid.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Functional Archival Resource Keys
Thanks for the info. I'm glad I'm not the only person struggling with this. I'm not entirely sure my architecture will allow me to append question marks in this way (two question marks is probably feasible, but it doesn't appear that one is). I don't believe that the ARK spec and HTTP URIs are fully compatible ideas. Hopefully some clearer request parameter or content negotiation standards emerge. Ethan On Sat, Dec 6, 2014 at 10:23 AM, Phillips, Mark mark.phill...@unt.edu wrote: Ethan, As Mark mentioned we have implemented the ARK inflections of ? and ?? with our systems. I remember the single ? being a bit of a problem to implement in our system stack (Apache/mod_python/Django) and from what I can tell isn't possible with (Apache/mod_wsgi/Django) at all. The ?? inflection wasn't really a problem for us on either of the systems. From conversations I've had with implementors of ARK, the issues around supporting the ? and ?? inflections don't seem to be related to the frameworks issues as other issues like commitment to identifiers, the fact that ARKs are being used in a redirection based system like Handles, or the challenges of accessing the item metadata for items elsewhere in their system. I think having a standard set of request parameters or other url conventions could be beneficial to the implementation of these features by others.

From the article: An ARK contains the label *ark:* after the URL's hostname, which sets the expectation that, when submitted to a web browser, the URL terminated by '?' returns a brief metadata record, and the URL terminated by '??' returns metadata that includes a commitment statement from the current service provider. Looking at the official documentation ( https://confluence.ucop.edu/display/Curation/ARK), they provided an example of http://ark.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/tf5p30086k? which is supposed to return something called an Electronic Resource Citation, but it doesn't work. Probably because, and correct me if I'm wrong, using question marks in a URL in this way doesn't really work in HTTP. So, has anyone successfully implemented this? Is it even worth it? I'm not sure I can even implement this in my own architecture. Maybe it would be better to recommend a standard set of request parameters that actually work in REST?

Re: [CODE4LIB] Functional Archival Resource Keys
Any Apache server (not Tomcat) can handle the '?' and '??' cases with a
few rewrite rules to transform them into typical CGI-like query strings.
# Detect ? and ?? inflections and map to typical CGI-style parameters.
# One question mark case: ? - ?show=briefas=anvl/erc
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \?
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1?show=briefas=anvl/erc
# Two question mark case: ?? - ?show=supportas=anvl/erc
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^\?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1?show=supportas=anvl/erc
So if your architecture supports query strings of the form
?name1=value1name2=value2...
it can support ARK inflections.
I don't believe that the ARK spec and HTTP URIs are fully compatible ideas.
True. A '?' by itself has no meaning in the URI spec, which means it's
also an opportunity to do something intuitive and important with an
unused portion of the instruction space (of strings that start out
looking like URLs). Any URLs (not just ARKs) could support this.
The THUMP spec (where inflections really live) will be modified to
require an extra HTTP response header to indicate that the server is
responding to an inflection and not to a standard URI query string.
This could help in the '??' case, which actually could be interpreted
as a valid URI query string.

Ethan,
As Mark mentioned we have implemented the ARK inflections of ? and ?? with
our systems.
I remember the single ? being a bit of a problem to implement in our
system stack (Apache/mod_python/Django) and from what I can tell isn't
possible with (Apache/mod_wsgi/Django) at all.
The ?? inflection wasn't really a problem for us on either of the systems.
From conversations I've had with implementors of ARK, the issues around
supporting the ? and ?? inflections don't seem to be related to the
frameworks issues as other issues like commitment to identifiers, the fact
that ARKs are being used in a redirection based system like Handles, or the
challenges of accessing the item metadata for items elsewhere in their

I think having a standard set of request parameters or other url

others.

There's nothing to prevent a server from supporting both the HTTP Accept
header (content negotiation) and inflections. If you can do the one, the
other should be pretty easy.

Anyone know if internet is included? I mean, it would be crazy if it's not, but just to make sure somebody thought about it... On Mon, Dec 8, 2014 at 3:35 PM, Mark A.

If you're having trouble, calling the hotel directly is probably the best solution. We'll do our best to stay on top of the block status and expand it where needed. The hotel has been very flexible thus far, and I get the impression they would be glad if we booked them solid.

It might not be that the hotel is booked up, but rather that it won't allow us to order that night on the block. That seems to be the case (i.e. the block for Thursday night is sold out). We're working on getting info and expanding the block as needed.
