1. Begin to plan out what features/changes should happen in the DSpace 1.7 release
2. Begin to layout a general timeline for achieving 1.7 by December.
3. Begin to develop proposals/ideas for a longer term RoadMap (beyond 1.7 and towards a 2.0 version)

Meeting Notes

• Began by discussing potential features/work that could be released as part of DSpace 1.7. Potential features which should be ready include:
  • CGIProposal (Richard Rodgers/MIT)
  • CurationTaskProposal (Richard Rodgers/MIT)
  • AipBackupRestorePrototype (Tim Donohue/DuraSpace)
  • SWORD Client for DSpace? (Robin Taylor)
  • Rewrite of Creative Commons licensing (MIT)
  • Mark Wood's XML-based "gadget" for basic repository size statistics?
• Discussion turned towards DSpace Services and integration of DSpace 2.0 work, and RoadMap towards 2.0. Despite no final decisions, we came to some general consensus around how to move forward:
  • Rough consensus that we should continue to slowly integrate in DSpace 2.0 work (and move towards that prototype implementation) – we've already integrated in 2.0 work into 1.5.2 and 1.6.0, just need to decide what is next to add to 1.7.0
  • General confusion / lack of understanding of the 2.0 work and DSpace Services
  • Rough consensus that we should also keep track of Fedora RoadMap, and look to see if there are any future "overlaps" that may provide opportunities
