Francotoile: meeting and update plans
: Martin Holmes
Minutes: 90
Met with CC and BP and discussed the review they have done of the site. Things to be fixed:
- Antoine should be in La Roche-sur-Yon, France, but he is in the ocean. DONE.
- Videos to be removed: La culture francophone par Aurore (2 videos) DONE, L’éducation par Olivier DONE, Les accents par Rémi DONE.
- Requiring transcripts: La francophonie par Liette, L’éducation post-secondaire par Guillaume. Awaiting these transcripts from CC.
- Stopwords in the search were deemed to be a problem because language-learners often need to search for small words such as grammatical particles. We tested with a very minimal stopword list and all worked well; we also changed the minimum word length for indexing from three to one. The results seem just fine, so we will stick with that.
There are no plans to further extend the site.
