WBConfCall 2024.04.04-Agenda and Minutes

WS293

• Hinxton will start the build on 15th April. Caltech curators need to submit data on Tues. April 9.
• No schema change

OMIM to MIM switch

• Which release is this targeted for?
  • Presumably WS294 since WS293 about to start
• Do we want to rename files on FTP site?
  • e.g. c_elegans.PRJNA13758.WS292.omim_xrefs.txt
• Do we need to change the Database name in AceDB
  • IDs are stored in AceDB without the prefix, but with the Database name OMIM
  • Changing this significantly increases the complexity of switching from OMIM to MIM
  • Does this database name get prepended to the ID as a prefix in the web code?
• GitHub ticket related to OMIM and DO changes: https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/9444

Help Desk

• Ticket #9471: User trying to download the results from this search result as a list of genes: https://wormbase.org/search/gene/Stress%20Response?species=c_elegans
  • Current message: "Too many results to download. Please use our FTP site." Should we point to a specific file on the download page? There are so many files on the FTP/HTTPs pages.
  • Another issue related to this search. When the results are downloadable, all five options (json, csv, HTML, XML, YML) point to the HTML results when users use Chrome. Example: https://wormbase.org/search/gene/Calmodulin/all?species=c_elegans&format=text%2Fcsv
