  • Workshops & Conferences - covered above. The last phase of the grant was to hold an in person migration workshop however, people are reluctant to travel.  Therefore, workshops are being held in various venues.
Open Fedora Position
  • Hiring a half time position with technical skills - details are to yet worked out whether this would be a technical lead or a junior developer that would grow into a fuller role. This will not be a position split with a half time position within Lyrasis. We are not looking for a contractor as we value building knowledge and retaining that knowledge.
  • The pandemic has opened up opportunity given more people that seem to be interested in less than full time.
  • Depending on what we find, a contractor is an option.
  • We still have and hope to retain Mike.

  • Existing Code of Conduct is due to be reviewed. The intention is to think about revising the statement to make it more of a member expectation statement rather than a legal statement.
  • Situations have arisen that could be considered using the community for marketing.
  • Discussed that we had a higher level code of conduct from Duraspace.
