  • A. Soroka
    • Just getting back and starting to fix issues that Andrew had with PR.
    • Want to schedule special topics call for validation.
  • Andrew Woods
    • Talked to Kai Sternad about properties updates in transactions and merged in his update.
    • Also talked to Kai about some other transaction issues.
    • Looked at federation issues and agrees with Adam that there is a MODE issue here, but maybe we can figure out how to handle this or we are doing something wrong.  Will continue to look at this.
    • Merged in work from Mike Daines for user groups via HTTP headers and updated docs for how to wire that in.
    • Working on 4.0 feature set docs.
  • David Wilcox
    • Will be contacting users for doing acceptance testing of large file handling and external datastreams.
  • Eric James
    • Working on getting auth up and running with federated filesystem.
    • Using new config docs in the wik, which is running but not completely working.  Trying to track that down.
      • Andrew: make sure to ask for help if that isn't working
  • Unknown User (escowles@ucsd.edu)
    • Working on writing to filesystem federation using REST API.  The repository is writing links to versions that don't exist and this is breaking reading the node metadata.
    • We should probably have a supertype of fedora:resource that's not versionable, but this may be problematic.  Working on more limited approach to just trap the errors and continue with RDF generation instead.
      • Adam: We should be able to turn off the generation of those triples.  Or we can remove the mix:versionable mixin from fedora:resource, which would require explicitly adding the versionable mixin if desired (which is how it worked previously).  We may also want to ask about adding a method to the connector interface for querying whether a connector supports versioning.
