- General Announcements:
- Tentative Timeline for 1.8.0 now posted
- Will be released in October 2011. Tentative, detailed timeline now posted on 1.8.0 Release Notes page
- Formal announcement forthcoming to DSpace community (via listservs).
- Tentative Listing of potential features for 1.8.0
- Also listed on 1.8.0 Release Notes page
- These are not definite, just what we hope will be ready in time for 1.8.0. If you want to see a particular feature happen, please volunteer to help!
- Tentative Timeline for 1.8.0 now posted
- Will we need a 1.7.1 – seems we've had several fixes in 1.7.1? Do .x branch recently (though none seem serious). We may want to begin thinking about whether we want to set a tentative timeline for it?release a 1.7.1 within next month or two.
- Schedule a "Special Topics" Meeting? Any of the following could make for a nice discussion (these are all larger topics that have come up recently).
- git / DCVS
- Forming a "Documentation Management Team"? Or reworking our procedures for managing/reviewing/approving Docs on the Wiki.
- Switch to a new version numbering scheme? Suggestions include: (1) drop the "1.", so that "1.8" would be "DSpace 8", or (2) number based on release date, so Oct 2011 release would be nummbered 11.10 (YY.MM)
- Improving how DSpace handles Metadata. Several ideas mentioned recently:
- Updating to current DCMI standards: DS-805
- Creating a new "dspace" internal usage schema (for administrative, or non-DC metadata)? Formalize the "dc" schema to be strictly valid QDC/DC?
- Metadata on all DSpace objects (not just Items)
