Strategic Subgroup Reports and Next Steps
...
Product Technology Subgroup (Fedora6 development)
...
- 3 sprints
- Fedora6 is able to write basic OCFL
- we depend on work happing between the sprints → so far
- groundwork is complete for most features
- modeshape is no longer used
- prerequisites for releasing Fedora6:
- needs to be tested
- be as bullet proof as possible
- development plan:
- clear path to finalising: 8 weeks of sprints (3 srints, each 2 weeks, at least 5 comitters)
- 2 phases: alpha, then beta
- we could use help in documentation
- development team is very effective (complete overhaul of Fedora in 7 sprints!)
- Worked out Fedora6 testplan (still a early draft)
Q to leadership group: Are there other requirements?
Comment: Good alignment between tactical team and development team.
Communication Outreach Marketing and Community Sub-Group
- 3 Meetings
- next steps for Fedora6 outreach: what are strategies regarding communication?
- We should do a blog post "8 weeks to Fedora6"?
- Idea: Do market research on membership and potential membership: Where could we get professional support to do that? Hire a professsional? Would make sense to approach it from the context of all Lyrasis projects. Currently we don't have time to do that market research. Probably more a long term goal. We need to contact our members now, so it's too late to do that research for this round.
Q to leadership group: Has anyone experience in working with professionals for market research?
Comment: There is an oppurtunity to reach out to the whole Lyrasis community.
Governance and Business Model Subgroup
- Reviewed the membership analysis (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LekFnjP4Cq_WuwnC-fXnU5ugqqjH4izN_2U9uVaSLUo/edit)
- Recommendations out of the report regarding community engagement.
- How do engage our community?
- Focus on groups A and B (more in the meeting notes: 2020-02-07 Governance and Business Model Subgroup Meeting).
- gap between installation sites and memberships:
- Are there any consortiums we could contact in Canada?
Comment: Austria is missing on the list of Fedora installations.
Comment: List is based on registry, if your installation is missing on the list, add it to the registry: https://duraspace.org/registry/.
Comment: Registry is voluntary so not every installation is listed.
