Subject: [DAS] client access to validation status in the registry
Message-ID: <426337BB-A90D-468B-81FF-45C1B1F48910@sanger.ac.uk>

The DAS Registry has been updated so clients can access the  
information held on the validity of the servers.
If you use a sources request (http://www.dasregistry.org/das1/ 
sources/) the response now has valid prop elements like so:

<PROP name="valid" value="sequence" />
       <PROP name="valid" value="types" />
       <PROP name="valid" value="features" />
       <PROP name="valid" value="entry_points" />
       <PROP name="valid" value="stylesheet" />

The web service also produces this information as well.
For further info see:
http://www.dasregistry.org/help_scripting.jsp
and
http://www.biodas.org/wiki/Everything_DAS#Connecting_to_the_Registry_Programmatically

Thanks

Jonathan.

Subject: [DAS] Biodas.org domain registration expired ?
Message-ID: <A56CCB96395E684D9D57EAFB4AC41D4D0F61BCC1A7@ICEXM4.ic.ac.uk>

Hi,

is there a problem with the biodas.org website ?
It looks like the registration has expired .

https://secure.registerapi.com/order/renew/auto.php?domain=biodas.org&campn=expired
------------------
This domain has expired
It will be deleted in the next few days. If you are the owner of this domain, you still have a chance to renew it.

   	Domain Name	   	Expires	  
   	biodas.org	   	14-JUL-09	  

  You can renew all or part of the listed domains immediately; we recommend doing this, in case we don't have your credit card on file. Domains renewed manually will not be auto-renewed.

  If you own this domain, you can log in to your account by clicking this button. 
------------------

best,

vincent.

The biodas.org domain is not owned/managed by OBF so we are limited in  
what we can do.

A few minutes ago I personally paid the 2/year renewal fee for the  
domain, hopefully it will take just a few more hours for the domain  
intercept page to disappear and the website to show up again.

There is a list already for this purpose - open-bio-l

I think we will also need a cross-project wiki space on the OBF site. Is
there something already used by other projects or should we set
something up?

I am cross-posting this to other OBF project lists to encourage
developers interested in combining efforts to address common problems.
This started with FASTQ short read formats, and open-bio-l (a low volume
list) has also seen discussion of common test data sets.

Please sign up to open-bio-l (if you are not there already) and post
suggestions for cross-project issues there. The list subscription page is:

http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/open-bio-l

Please feel free to forward this to any other projects I may have missed
(I picked the obvious addresses from the list.open-bio-org server)

regards,

Peter Rice
