Developers Meeting on Weds, March 14, 2012
Agenda
Regular Items
- JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-958
General Reminders
- Feel free to keep adding ideas to DSpace GSoC Ideas Page. We should hear on Friday if we are accepted to GSoC'12
Discussion Topics
- GitHub Migration
- Do we just leave the main DSpace/DSpace GitHub repo as-is? The only way to properly re-map all SVN Users -> GitHub Users would be to recreate it.
- Volunteers to help with Migration?
- Revisiting Virtual Summit
- Very successful meeting, with a nice list of "Actionable Takeaways"
- Any thoughts on how many times would we like to hold this Summit per year? Once (Jan/Feb)? Twice (Jan and May/June)? Three times (Jan, May & Sept)?
- Any other feedback to mention?
- 3.0 Release
- We still need a "team leader" for our Release Team.
- Current Release Team (all volunteered in Fall): Hardy P, Sands F, Kim S, Robin T
- Any other potential features folks want to add?
- We still need a "team leader" for our Release Team.
- Other topics?
Additional Ongoing Topics
- Brainstorming Features/Changes for 3.0. Can we work towards development teams around any of these projects?
- Larger DSpace projects which seem to have a lot of recent support:
- Moving towards a Common "Business Logic" / Business Services API. (I.e. avoiding duplication of business logic in all UIs)
- Metadata For All (i.e. metadata on all objects), SubTopic: Getting us up-to-date how we use Dublin Core / DCMI. (Support from DCAT)
- Other DSpace projects receiving mention recently
- Migrate Search and Browse to DSpace Discovery
- "Change which UIs come out-of-the-box" (and which are optionally installed later)
- Move configurations to DB or similar (so they can be managed/edited from Admin UI)
- Context Guided Ingest (or Item Type based submissions)
- Other Development Proposals
- Larger DSpace projects which seem to have a lot of recent support:
