Cairn + OARS

@Ty Hob

• Project merge is a WIP, but we have general agreement on direction and feature set

• We’re looking for a new name to make it clear that this is a somewhat different thing than either of the two projects. Leaning toward “Aspects” / “Aspect Learner Analytics”. Thoughts?

• Repos will be consolidated on tutor-contrib-oars (which will be renamed)

• Both xAPI and tracking log pipelines will be supported

• Both LRS (Ralph) and log-based (Vector) pipelines will be supported

• Will be looking to expand Régis' CC rights to become a maintainer on the repo

• Announcement coming soon, once the name is nailed down

OARS update

@Ty Hob

• Work is close to landing for bulk tracking log file → xAPI (and Caliper) replay to LRS or file or log

• PRs in flight for combining the numerous existing repos

• Superset permissions meeting coming up once Palm is done

• Discussions on extensibility and how to handle migrations for the top level (non-dbt) schema

• Cristian made core contributor!

Data WG meeting format

@Ty Hob

Is this format working for folks? It seems less like a WG and more like me giving status updates most of the time. The folks working on OARS have been communicating out of band and in another meeting about technical details, would it be better to pull that into this or is that too low level?
