  • Reminders about upcoming 9.0 deadlines.  See 9.0 schedule at the top of agenda.
  • Final steps for 8.1 / 7.6.3.
    • Final reminder to review the release notes for both releases (see links above) if you haven't already 
    • The last "must have" PRs have been approved & will be merged after the meeting: 
    • Final step is to get these PRs backported to 8.x (done) and 7.x (done)
    • Once all of these PRs are merged, Tim will start the release process for 8.1 & 7.6.3
    • Likely that will begin either later today (Feb 6) or early tomorrow (Feb 7).
    • Release Announcement will go out at least a few hours after the release is completed.  This ensures that everything released has propagated to Maven, and DockerHub, etc.
      • Expect to see the announcement on mailing lists on either Friday or Monday. 
  • Question: What is the status of the DSpace & DSpace-CRIS potential merger discussions? Have the groups been created to discuss this?
    • Tim answered:  In the past week these groups were finalized.  There's a Technology group and a Strategy group, and both have a final list of members.
    • Both groups are "invite only" as we need to have a small enough team to discuss these issues.  Both groups have a mix of members who use either DSpace or DSpace-CRIS (or both).
    • Group meeting notes will be public , so that everyone can understand what is being discussed in these groups.
    • Tim & Holger will try to bring general summaries of these discussions (and link in past group meeting notes) to these Developer Meetings.
    • The first meeting of the Technology group is next Thurs (Feb 13) after this Developer Meeting & will be meeting every other week.  Initial meetings will be trying to get everyone on the team up-to-speed on DSpace-CRIS (especially) and the reasons why we might want to merge. So, it may be a few weeks until we have any significant updates to share.
  • 9.0 Board team reviews. Reviewed four PRs today:
