Agenda

  1. Addressing External Content: Redirect or Proxy?
    1. I believe we have landed on a solution... just need a PR
    2. https://github.com/fcrepo/fcrepo-specification/issues/338
  2. Pull requests:

    1. pr-340 - Prefer headers request not require - (Need review from Daniel Lamb and Benjamin Armintor)
    2. pr-334 - Add version number to specification title (let it sit until 1.0 release date)
  3. Plan for addressing open Recommendation issues

    1. #308 - Requiring Accept-Post on OPTIONS, recommending for GET/HEAD -  PR #337 has been somewhat overtaken by ongoing debate about external content
  4. New issues?
  5. Tidying and reviewing the spec

Notes

  1. PR 340: is simpler than it looks, needs review from Daniel Lamb and Benjamin Armintor
  2. PR 341: have consensus, need review from all
    1. Do we want handling to be a Prefer, or mandatory?
      1. Probably mandatory — people probably know how they want it to work, and would rather have a failure than a different handling option
      2. We can add other parameters to the Link header
      3. Accept-External-Content-Handling header in OPTIONS response to advertise which handling options are supported
    2. What if the client doesn't supply a handling parameter?
      1. It should be required — the client can check the OPTIONS response and decide what handling it wants
