Hi,
I would like to know if it is permitted to install on the Labs tools which
could be useful for Wikimedia activities but without having in mind to
develop the tool. I searched a bit on archives of the list and on the
wiki, but didn’t found anything related.
The specific case is the installation of OpenRefine [1][2] (ex Google
Refine) useful to manipulate data, for instance GLAM metadata --
specifically here for a cooperation with a museum in Belgium but it could
be for any data manipulations.
OpenRefine is a web tool in Java+Python which listens on a specific port.
It is originally intended to run on the local computer. It seems it don’t
use many ressources for a single user.
So is there any rules regarding the general case? And if it is
case-by-case, is there a checklist for a specific tool (security,
ressources, environment, etc.)?
