I was just going to ask about this ^^, glad I searched the issues first. I noticed some instances where this dataset has different coding from the old EA033 etc. I imagine that most of the time, this more recent set is better to use? Or that the focal year will differ and help tease the codings apart.

[SimonGreenhill]

Not sure, you'd need to ask Sheehan et al.

[HedvigS]

Is the intention that datasets from papers like this will be added to D-place?

[SimonGreenhill]

yes, subject to ease and availability.

Hi! I found myself thinking about this again. What's the status here? Can I help in anyway?

The datasets aggregated in D-PLACE now all have their individual, cldfbench-curated repository, e.g. https://github.com/D-PLACE/dplace-dataset-ccmc . Here's a short description how to go about creating such a repos: https://github.com/D-PLACE/pydplace?tab=readme-ov-file#usage

@SimonGreenhill would you like me to have a go at that? I can contact Oliver and work on it together with him?

[SimonGreenhill]

ok that would be great, if you could!

sure thing, I'll add it to do -list

@SimonGreenhill

The supplementary of the paper uses ABVD codes to identify languages/societies. Are these the same as the current ABVD website and CLDF-set? There's been no change in identifiers since this paper?

[SimonGreenhill]

yes and no (ABVD codes have never changed)

[HedvigS]

yes and no (ABVD codes have never changed)

@xrotwang I assume I should make a repos within the D-PLACE organisation. Can I get access to make a new repos there?
Or should I make it just anywhere?

@HedvigS you should have received an invitation to https://github.com/D-PLACE/dplace-dataset-sheehanetal2018
