[LTER-im] EDI Unit Dictionary WG planning

[Remillard, Suzanne]

Hi Margaret,

For me, the times displayed in the Doodle poll are American/Denver and I cannot change it to American/Los Angeles. I had this same problem with another recent Doodle poll. When I log in, I see my preference is set. I don't know what the issue is. I am wondering if others are seeing the times in their proper time zones? And to make sure I should subtract an hour? Is the first option Feb 8 at 8 am PST?

Thanks, Suzanne

Hello all -
During EDI's recent town hall, we gave a summary of the status of the LTER Unit Dictionary, and asked who was interested in potential future use of the database content. This message is to set up a meeting to discuss directions.

Please fill out this doodle poll for a kickoff meeting:

Background:
The Unit registry was a resource created by the LTER IMC to collect units in use in the network, so that they could be browsed and more easily included in EML datasets. There were two parts: a mysql database and a PHP interface with web services. The server and the PHP are both seriously out of date. The database itself was cleaned up and used as a basis for adding new units to the EML schema for version 2.2 in 2018 (https://github.com/EDIorg/unit-registry<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FEDIorg%2Funit-registry&data=04%7C01%7Csuzanne.remillard%40oregonstate.edu%7C40e960bfb6d34ac4073608d9e1dffdd6%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C637789174424459412%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=gg3Rz9ryvEJpZsC%2F4npu9Idd%2F7OdWfQRehG179GPeuw%3D&reserved=0>)

First meeting agenda:
1. introductions, as necessary
2. discuss potential uses for resources related to the unit registry (mainly the DB content)
3. find a time for a recurring (monthly) meeting.

This message was sent to a couple of email lists, sorry for duplication. Thanks for your interest!
Margaret
