[09:59] MichaelGruninger: Peter will send his summary of the
Infrastructure Status to the Trustee list
//

Here's the status on the migration of the various components of the
Ontolog-CWE infrastructure for Ontolog, as well as other communities
who have been hosted by Ontolog on the CIM3.NET infrastructure:

1. ONTOLOG

- website: not done yet; will be part of the shared-file workspace
migration later

- forum: CIM3 will continue to host this (indefinitely)

- wiki: migration in progress; OntologWiki content now frozen; will
migrate to the ontolog-02 instance of psmw (still on CIM3.NET) first,
then another migration to the cloud at DigitalOcean; target completion
by late-Aug/early-Sep ... when ready, this will be mirrored, probably
by NEU, OVGU, UToronto, (and possibly Stanford)

- shared-file workspace: not done yet; but will be hosted or mirrored
by whoever is going to host the wiki

- conference bridge: IAOA has taken over, since 2014.07.01 (at least
for the rest of 2014)

- shared screen-support: not addressed yet ... volunteers, please

- historic archives (all open content prior to 2014.06.30): CIM3 will
host  ... when ready, this will be mirrored by NEU, possibly others


2. IAOA

- website: migration done, now hosted by loa.istc.cnr.it (Trento, Italy)

- forum: migration done, now hosted by OVGU (Magdeburg, Germany)

- wiki: community-only wiki: closed ... open wiki will probably
request to continue on the OntologPSMW - (outstanding) need agreement
between IAOA and Ontolog_BoT as well as hosting organization(s)

- shared-file workspace: not done yet; but will be hosted or mirrored
by whoever is going to host the wiki


3. SOCoP

- website: not done yet, but its just a redirection of the URL to the
wiki ... will do when 'new' wiki is ready

- forum: not done yet ... CIM3 is awaiting migration plan from the
SOCoP leadership

- wiki: will probably request to continue on the OntologPSMW -
(outstanding) need agreement between SOCoP and Ontolog_BoT as well as
hosting organization(s)

- shared-file workspace: not done yet; but will be hosted or mirrored
by whoever is going to host the wiki


4. OOR

- website: updated - see: http://oor.net ... still operated by CIM3
(for now) ... will probably move to DigitalOcean when the OOR-sandbox
is moved there (CIM3 will still serve the DNS)

- forum: migration done, now hosted by OVGU (Magdeburg, Germany)

- wiki: will probably request to continue on the OntologPSMW -
(outstanding) need agreement between OOR and Ontolog_BoT as well as

7. OntologySummit

- see ONTOLOG - assuming ONTOLOG will continue to provide the virtual
infrastructure for this jointly organized effort by the 6
co-organizers.


Legend:
* CWE = Collaborative Work Environment, comprising of the website,
archived mailing-list, wiki and shared-file workspace, which dubbed as
a DKR (dynamic knowledge repository) for the community
* forum = archived mailing list, comprising of the listserv and the
message archives
* wiki = originally: OntologWiki now moving to OntologPSMW
* shared-file workspace = various webdav servers
* conference bridge = originally the ITS2 conference bridge service
paid for by CIM3
* shared-screen support = originally the VNC server hosted by CIM3
which provides real time screen (slides) sharing during community
virtual events (webinars)
* NEU = Northeastern University (Boston, Massachusetts, USA)
* OVGU = Otto von Guericke University at Magdeburg (Magdeburg, Germany)
* UToronto = University of Toronto (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)
* Stanford - Stanford University/BMIR (Stanford, California, USA)


Please review and let me know if I've missed anything.


I want to take the opportunity to thank everyone who has been
involved, and the HUGE numbers of hours and smarts they have poured
into this, contributing to this (non-trivial) exercise.


Thanks & regards. =ppy
