Milestone - Ongoing support for new MIxS releases (v7, v8, v9) (2.2) #869

Open ssarrafan opened 2 weeks ago

ssarrafan commented 2 weeks ago

Ongoing support for new MIxS releases & iterative updates Updates to the GSC’s MIxS standards are released on an annual basis, and include updates on environment-specific package and core fields across packages, as well as the development of new packages based on community demand. This ever-evolving landscape of community-driven standards requires close coordination and engagement with the GSC (see Letters of Support). We will perform a refresh of the schema in coordination with these version releases, which entails semi-automated database migrations (e.g., if a term is subdivided into two concepts). We will also work closely with the GSC’s CIG to ensure the standards are properly encoded and coherent, along with backwards compatibility, and to provide ‘computable diffs’ between each version of the standard such that migrations can be performed automatically (Milestone 2.2).

Recurring milestone. See #447

Is this really a Q1 due? Or rolling? Continued support feels rolling. And maybe we'll get MIxS v7 out by end of Q2?

Discussed at planning meeting today. This is rolling. Can document contributions to MIxS and close.
