• consider backporting of https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/3506 and https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/3997 to Dspace 8.x
  • Question: Why would we want this in DSpace 8? 
    • Because these changes will affect all the backporting we have to do in future releases; automatic backports will fail
  • Concern: these are going to be difficult, complex upgrades for sites with customization, as they touch a lot of code
  • Several committers expressed hesitancy to backport this to DSpace 8; might better to think of ways to make the backport easier for us, since main branch has converged quite a bit from DSpace 8
    • Could start development on 8 and forward port it to main
  • If you have any ideas how to improve porting between the two branches, please let Tim know
