Discussion Notes/References
1) High level roadmap vision
Sarah S.
-tension between DSpace that does 'everything' or DSpace that has core funtionality that is important for repository activities - find a way to scale back to core, but make more modular to allow for extensability, integrations
-DCAT is likely an appropriate group to help represent community
--silent majority - use older version of DSpace, don't upgrade, aren't involved/aren't communicating with community about needs
--active group - think and contribute to community
--pushing the boundaries group
-pushed back on DSpace as a Hydra head - for now - need vision before making any specific decisions about direction
-governance discussion needs to be separate from an 'ask' for support/resources - so that there is clarity in what the vision is
Jim
-governance and how it relates to the vision
-vision requires a lot of buy in from active users - establish core use cases and construct DSpace so that it addresses those needs
Sarah P.
-role of the hosted solution - DSpaceDirect - and how it may play into development
-looking to satisfy current DSpace users or attrack more / broader users
Amy
-DSpace / Fedora merge - might end up there - need to work on vision first
2)
Bram: the value added to JIRA tkts varies - depends on individual knowledge and time available, Bram works on documentation related JIRA issues
Maureen: we could still work on JIRA tkts if they can't contribute elsewhere
-set reasonable objectives
-repost tools for JIRA discussions
-post 4x a year cmtr/dcat mtgs to OR topic list
3) metadata
checksum is not an issue
discussion/presetnation at OR?
OAI8 discussion?
