  • The 9.0 Release Board has been created on GitHub
    • The "Needs Reviewers Assignment" Section contains features that did not make the 8.0 release and were moved here from the 8.0 board (labeled "new feature")
    • Tim briefly discussed some of these features and encouraged and encouraged developers to test and review these; instructions on how to review pull requests can be found on the wiki: Testing DSpace 7 Github Pull Requests
  • The DSpace Release 9.0 Status board is currently under discussion by a subgroup of the Steering Group
    • The subgroup will identify high priority features to recommend to the Steering Group as priority for 9.0 development; DSpace Governance (Steering and Leadership) will make the final decision which features will be prioritized in DSpace 9.0
    • The Governance Groups will propose development at a more general, higher level; they will not set specific tickets or give and exact list of features (see the DSpace Release 8.0 Status for comparison)
  • Discussed ongoing agenda items (GitHub tickets)
    • #3110
      • No current updates on this ticket, recommended that developers continue analysis and add any ideas and possible solutions to the ticket's discussion section
    • #3183
      • No updates
    • #3184
      • Communication between the backend and the frontend of the installation needs improvement; this is one of the most reported technical issues users report through support channels
      • Discussed different ideas and options of improving the process, including #1485, which is also connected to the performance of Server-Side -Rendering issueRendering.  #1485 needs updated analysis, as it's unclear if the main issue is on the backend (REST API returning incorrect "_links") or on frontend (inability to manage multiple backend URLs) or both.  Needs a volunteer to investigate further.
