Micropublication update
- First Nemametrix micro in for WS257
- Two lined up for WS258
- Karen and Daniela in touch with e-publishing platforms (HighWire [1], Collaborative knowledge foundation[2]), to set up collaborations for the Micropublication: biology e-journal [3]
- Discussing putting worm breeder's gazette articles into micropublications
- Collaborative knowledge foundation is a non-profit publisher, some former member of Highwire
- Would be good to have a faster way to display micropublications (standard WB pipeline needs at least 4 months)
- Could use content management systems (CMSs)
- Maybe will propose a workshop for the 2017 international C. elegans meeting

Update from AGR portal use case working group
- Preparing document for the Dec. 6th leadership meeting
- Need to address several questions about prototype development process
- Communication has been insufficient, leading to a lag in use case implementation and possibly off-target expectations
- Working group would like to know:
- What are the boundaries of responsibility for the use case working group?
- Will there be a data integration working group to collect data as required for a use case?
- What group or groups does the use case working group need to hand off tasks to?
- What overall decisions about technologies need to be made about AGR before implementing use cases?
- Working on an idea to show comparisons between transcript and protein isoforms
