Hi all,

It was great to get Office Hours rolling today, thanks to Adam Shepherd and Eugene Chi for coming along and contributing. We made progress on:

  • Investigating how schema.org module can be used to implement LRMI metadata for the Data Management Training Clearing House project (Eugene, David)
  • Collating research on building an EZID API for the DOIs for Drupal project (David)
  • DataONE member node API (Adam)
  • Improving a patch for WMS maps in Leaflet module, in response to to drupal.org feedback (David)

We're looking to build up a library of HOWTOs for common tasks on Drupal, and we think using schema.org module could be a good contender - if anyone is interested in writing up a recipe or recording a short walkthrough for a telecon (to add to our youtube collection), let us know.

See you at our telecon in two weeks, or the next Office Hours next month at the same time.

Thanks! David

I do this for my personal and site's future reference. I use a lot of views and panels so, when I get to write a How to, I will share.
