Notes

Dev Meeting Time

  • Due to Daylight Savings Time, our meeting time is now 15:00UTC until March 9, 2025

Discussion Topics

  • OR2025 proposals are due Dec. 18
  • Please add new ideas for presentations, workshops, etc. or feedback to the wiki page 

9.0 Release Schedule

  • We are aiming for the 9.0 release to come out in April 2025
  • See the current Release Schedule at 2024-11-07 DSpace Developers Meeting
  • Any thoughts, feedback or ideas regarding the 9.0 release schedule, feel free to let Tim, Holger or any Steering member know
  • Concerns were expressed that the April timeline is too tight for a major release
    • 9.0 will be a smaller, transitionary release on purpose, which will allow a full year of development time for 10.0; therefore, it is important that we stick to the April 20205 release date timeline

Priorities for 9.0

  • There are still plenty of tickets that need to be claimed which address 9.0 priorities as listed on the DSpace Release 9.0 Status page
  • Priorities listed on the wiki page marked with a green checkmark have been completed
  • Anything that is currently on the list for 9.0 development that will not be completed by April 2025 will be pushed to 10.0 or 11.0
