Outstanding agreed proposals for changes to standard name table #33

Open JonathanGregory opened 2 years ago

JonathanGregory commented 2 years ago

In the lists below, ✔ means concluded, ❌ means still outstanding.

[Original introduction] It seems to me that there are a lot of proposals for standard names that were agreed after discussion of the issues but haven't yet appeared in the standard name table, if I'm not mistaken (I might be - apologies and please correct me if so). Some of them were concluded more than a year ago. Looking back through the open issues I found the following and may have overlooked some:

On 2023-9-13, Fran @feggleton posted the following list, which is copied here for reference, suggesting that they could be concluded in time for the next update of the table:

@JonathanGregory many thanks for the summary. I agree that there are quite a number of names which are ready to be published and I will schedule an update to the published standard name table. Apologies for the delay in updating it.

Best wishes, Alison

feggleton commented 2 years ago

Thanks all. Have been through and updated most of the tickets and commented. Alison and I will discuss the next update. I am also working on some GitHub actions in the background to automate some processes and provide us with reminders so nothing is missed. Hopefully will implement this soon.

JonathanGregory commented 2 years ago

Well done and thanks, @feggleton.

japamment commented 1 year ago

An update of the standard name table is planned for 6th and 7th February. The next version should then be available on the CF website and the NERC vocab server on the 7th. The aim of this update is publish the previously agreed names (as listed in this issue).

Apologies for the long gap since the last update. I hope to resume a more regular publishing schedule during 2023 and further updates will be announced in due course.

JonathanGregory commented 1 year ago

That's excellent news, Alison @japamment - thanks very much.

JonathanGregory commented 1 year ago

Dear Fran @feggleton

Thanks for the progress you've made in the last month with outstanding standard names. I don't think we ought to close this ticket yet, however, because several of them are still unresolved. From inspecting them, I think the following are very nearly finished:

This one hasn't progressed since the proposal was made last April. It needs to be added to the CF editor and reviewed:

The following have all been accepted or will be very soon (tomorrow!). Some of them were accepted a few months ago but haven't been closed, and I presume that means they haven't been published in the standard name table yet.

Is there any problem with publishing these?

Thanks for your help

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

I closed as this list was out of date and I'm keeping track of things my end. Some that were agreed have been published but some have been missed so I am flagging these to Alison for the next update. We are having monthly meetings to talk about these things and having the accepted label is useful to highlight these tickets. As you can see there are some differences between this repo and the cfeditor which is probably why these accepted terms were missed out. We are always trying to improve our processes and maintenance of the cfeditor is one that is being worked on. Happy to keep this open.

There are a lot of open requests at the moment so thanks for your input on each of them.

@feggleton Do you have any sense of when we can expect the outstanding accepted issues (#127 cf-convention/vocabularies#171 cf-convention/vocabularies#173 cf-convention/vocabularies#170 cf-convention/vocabularies#139 cf-convention/vocabularies#140 cf-convention/vocabularies#142) to be added?

feggleton commented 1 year ago

@sethmcg I spoke with Alison this morning, she is going to be performing another update very soon (towards the end of April). She is just confirming the date and should be posting about it here shortly. Thanks

This issue has had no activity in the last 30 days. This is a reminder to please comment on standard name requests to assist with agreement and acceptance. Standard name moderators are also reminded to review @feggleton @japamment

japamment commented 1 year ago

@JonathanGregory @sethmcg @feggleton An update of the standard name table will take place on Monday and Tuesday 24th/25th April. The next version should then be available on the CF website and the NERC vocab server on the 25th.

I will include as many agreed names (starting with the ones in #127 #136 #140 #156 #162 #163 #166) as possible next week and will schedule another update in the near future so as to catch up on the list of names awaiting publication.

JonathanGregory commented 1 year ago

That's great news. Thanks very much, Alison, @japamment, and thank you Fran @feggleton for adding proposals to the editor recently.

japamment commented 1 year ago

@JonathanGregory @feggleton @sethmcg the standard names update is in progress and the changes were published earlier today on the NERC Vocabulary Server: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P07/current/. There is a delay in publishing to the CF website due to system maintenance on the hardware that hosts the CEDA vocabulary editor. I will aim to complete the process tomorrow, once the maintenance period is over.

Alison

sethmcg commented 1 year ago

@japamment Would you mind updating us again when the changes have propagated to the CF website? Thanks much!

japamment commented 1 year ago

@sethmcg @JonathanGregory @feggleton apologies for the delay. Access to the editor was restored this morning and I've just completed the update: http://cfconventions.org/vocabularies.html.

We're now on version 81 (dated 25th April 2023) - I'll post an announcement listing full details of the changes shortly.

sethmcg commented 1 year ago

Hooray! Thanks!

feggleton commented 1 year ago

Glad the update went through ok in the end. @japamment could you post the announcement soon so we can close off the accepted tickets and I know which ones to close. @JonathanGregory Then we should update this ticket if it still needs to be open, if there are tickets we think are close to acceptance or been outstanding for a while but i am trying to review as many as I can when time allows. I am using the 'moderator attention' label as a priority of ones to review right now and working my way through the ones which need to be added to the cfeditor.

JonathanGregory commented 1 year ago

I have just been through all the unconcluded standard name proposals listed at the start of this issue, and I'm glad to say that only six are left. Thanks everyone for the recent efforts to address the backlog. I've updated the comment at the start of the issue to show what progress has been made!

feggleton commented 1 year ago

@japamment @JonathanGregory I've had a look through all the existing issues and have a list of outstanding issues which I think are close to be resolved which should be the focus to look at getting resolved for the next update of the standard names table, this doesnt include the 5 listed at the start of this issue which are outstanding.

In addition there are 3 area type requests which Alison is dealing with.

JonathanGregory commented 1 year ago

Thanks, Fran @feggleton. That's very helpful. Which are the five that have not yet been resolved from the initial list? Jonathan

feggleton commented 1 year ago

Thanks, they are:
