[cdif-community] CDIF Update Call, Tue 28 October, 15:30 UTC (16:30 CET,

[Simon Hodson, ED CODATA]

To the CDIF Community, WG, and AG, Greetings!

I am writing to invite you to a CDIF Update call on Tuesday 28 October at 15:30 UTC (which translates to 16:30 CET, 11:30 EDT <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20251028T153000&p1=1440&p2=tz_cet&p3=179&p4=57>).  A calendar invitation will follow.

We recognise that this time is too late for our Australian colleagues: however, the meeting will be recorded and we follow-up for any input, and so try to use this as way of exploring the ‘hub and spoke’ participation model that Lesley has suggested.  Furthermore, a significant part of the agenda will be to update colleagues on discussions and sessions at IDW.

We recognise that this invitation comes at short notice.  We hope that as many of you as possible will be able to make it. The recording will provide a useful update!

We intend to cover the following:

1) Update from IDW and related discussions
- WorldFAIR+ and CDIF Pre-IDW workshop <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1BbXvYzNQzF_A_l9yD9YRSkbtpZgNisweokc3WGuR9b8/edit>: presentations <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1GjIupPyNzcXZ47SNtCWpe1JJkQsYSka1qDvk6y-uW2o/edit?slide=id.g385db7fc000_0_283#slide=id.g385db7fc000_0_283> 
- Metadata beyond discovery <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.rd-alliance.org/group-session-app/metadata-beyond-discovery-extending-the-cross-domain-interoperability-framework/&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1761191919259600&usg=AOvVaw2PGuP1q2RlLj3FTat59Dy3> session: presentations <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1rkY_t31qxTY5qFYUQf4L-HtgARMSvCkQYmzU4hULVFw/edit?slide=id.g385db5f8475_2_104#slide=id.g385db5f8475_2_104>
- AI for Metadata Enhancement, Metadata for AI Readiness <https://scidatacon.org/event/9/contributions/36/> session: presentations <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1h1J3rY7g22fO7umtqv9_XoSC_DJfs3BF/edit?slide=id.g38bc0c78dd3_0_3#slide=id.g38bc0c78dd3_0_3>
- Linking variable description to machine-ready datasets <https://codata.org/linking-variable-description-to-machine-ready-datasets/>: CDIF and semantic Croissant
- Primary observation datasets <https://docs.google.com/document/d/17tMS_E-_KN1FRdzc16dHdMbp2LFmFKW5/edit#heading=h.7ctim4xzi6g5> BoF at eResearch: presentation <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1br0IYQaXCpL8CFCUiVx3CeNOTO7hNtvS6oNj6zD7mVY/edit?slide=id.g39b18d8fedb_13_7#slide=id.g39b18d8fedb_13_7> 
- Suggestion of CDIF for HPC Data Centres

2) Update on CDIF-4-XAS
- Next deliverable should be available before the Update Call

3) Plans for Dagstuhl Workshop <https://ddi-alliance.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DDI4/pages/3837133351/2025+The+Provenance+Chain+Connecting+and+Reusing+Data+Models+and+Experiments>
- Context, provenance and quality
- CDIF-4-XAS
- Access
- Metadata Mapping and Data Integration

4) Updates on the CDIF WGs and next steps?

We propose to arrange a similar call after the Dagstuhl Workshop and then settle into a more regular rhythm of CDIF WG meetings.

With very best wishes,

Simon.
