  • This meeting is an opportunity to align our thinking along the lines of fcrepo6, make sure we're on the same page, open the door to pivoting if needed
  • Priority is getting Fedora 6 out the door
    • Monthly sprints with focal points highly informed by state of application and item 1b: Progress towards f6
      • Green checkmarks = validated/verified.
      • Blue question marks:  validated by developer
  • There has been a small core of regular contributors to the sprint.  For institutions that have not been able to contribute development effort:  is there any reason/blockers?
    • Q: Are you sending sprint progress reports to the tech list?  May this help drum up grassroots support
    • A: There are sprint summary videos that go out as appropriate.   We want to show progress, but don't want to demo half-baked features, though.
    • There are institutions that are fairly interested in fcrepo6, e.g. Northwestern University re: "Beyond the repository" interested in testing.  Michigan State interested in doing migration from f3 to f6.  Have eggs in f3 basket, but not a lot of resources.  Penn State has general interest in testing when f6 nears a 1.0 state.  Other institutions also interested when f6 near 1.0 as well.
      • Brown in a similar state, but has staff member Ben Cail who has been actively involved in calls, technical decisions, testing.  This has been quite valuable!
