So, sometimes people ask what is this vision about (and how Semantic Web fits in the picture)? Some people in the DataCommons initiative provided some more details on that (in a more general domain):

Hi all, I think this is really a well made guide. We should probably collect useful introductory materials about RDF, LCIA, and other topics interesecting the BONSAI project. “An easy-to-read guide fo

Dear all, very good discussion! To the USP especially, in my view it is at present (not using the technically correct terms here probably I am afraid) Bringing together different data sources for life

Hi all, This my first post in the BONSAI community, but have been subscribed to the list for a while and would like to be able to participate more. Coming from a programming/physical sciences backgrou

I second this comment too. Focus on integration, good documentation, create a critical mass and then facilitating contributions. I would add that for me the challenging aspects in previous hackathons

Hi Benjamin and Miguel We already have two datasets one from IO (supply and use tables) and another from MFA linked to the BONSAI ontology. We are in the process of documenting it. I do think some add

That would be tremendously helpful for me. To be honest, when discovering new software packages I usually look at the examples, not the documentation. But maybe that's just me! Interesting idea! Count

Hi I will try to elaborate more later but being essentially a volunteer-based organization, I think we also need to pay some attention to the volunteers. In my opinion many are overwhelmed by the comp

Hi all, I agree that the USEPA work under Wes has been really impressive and broad. Compared to BONSAI though, it is both very well capitalized and very constrained institutionally. They are (I think)

My comment is the following: The real value proposition that none of the existing resources seems to have is the possibility to *integrate* multiple data sources. *Integrate* is complementary but very

My thoughts: - BONSAI and other projects (Electricity LCI, US EEIO LCIA base data, LCIA data formats, CDLCI project, GLAD, IEDC,...): I agree that it is hard to keep up with the numerous projects out

+1 to waiting for consensus and tooling to make this trivial on existing repos. I will make a proposal to switch to main as the default branch name to the GA, and post an update when a decision is mad

Here are my personal thoughts: There is a lot of work being done in the USA by various federal agencies, coordinated by the US EPA and supported by GreenDelta. This includes reproducible inventory bui

Dear BONSAI community- The 2020 general assembly will be held on Thursday, and is open to all paid members of BONSAI. Remember, active members qualify for a reduced enrollment rate of €50 - it isn't t

Hi Tomas, I think I can reassure you on practical issues: 1) so Github is already working on this: https://twitter.com/natfriedman/status/1271253144442253312?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw 2) the rename is maybe

Dear All, I totally understand the reason behind the wish to change names. Now, beware that: > The default branch name in Git is master. git-scm.com/book so, every time we create a new repo, or initia

I agree; I think 'main' actually is more precise (master has the connotation of dominance, irrespectively of the imperialist etymology)

Thanks for the support Massimo! To be honest me neither, but alas the fact that *we* don't do that association is quite at the core of the matter. As you say, it is definitely not about what we mean b
