Agenda and Minutes

GAF files

Do we need to remove annotations to other species? For GO, we have separate files, but till now we had C. elegans only GAF files for all other data types. Is it worth to create new species specific GAF anatomy files if we have only a handful of annotations? New GO GAF specifications have taxonID, so a single file with multiple species would be ok.
The FTP folder contains duplicate species specific files in the overall folder and in the species specific folders. Kevin is proposing to remove species specific files from the overall folder and leave them in species folders only. Hinxton is also thinking about adding empty files for species without annotations. We'll leave symlinks in the main folder for now and we'll completely remove the redundant files for WS281.

AOB: Dates for WS281 build?

Proposed quarterly release cycle: April-July-October-January. We could release the last day of the months in the cycle.
