Release Coordinating

...

DSpace is a community driven open source project. This means that the requirements for new features are driven by the community, and the actual code developments are contributed by the community. Therefore much of the role of the release coordinator team is based around working closely with the community to ensure that requirements are documented, and code is contributed.

...

Generally speaking, the release team helps coordinate the next release of DSpace.  This may include (not an exhaustive list):

• Helping Help keep code development around a release organized (DSpace JIRA is a great resource for keeping organized)
  • e.g. Ensure each new feature or bug fix has a developer assigned to it
  • e.g. If a developer needs help/feedback, help locate that help/feedback from the Committers or the community
• Helping Help communicate information about the Release to DSpace Community
• Reporting Report on release status updates during DSpace Developer Meetings
• Asking Ask for additional help/support when a release requires it
