April 6, 2011
Agenda
- First 20+ minutes: JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-756 765
- We will continue "Quick Review" format (2 minutes per issue, with extensions only as necessary), as we need to try to review JIRA issues more quickly. (More details on "Quick Review" format at JIRA Cleanup Sessions)
- Search for all Unresolved Issues (since DS-756765)
- GSoC 2011 Updates & Discussion
- 14 applications (11 DSpace, 2 Fedora, 2 DuraCloud) from 10 students.
- Still looking for Mentors!
- DSpace Ideas Page: DSpace Summer of Code Ideas
- Mentors, sign up on our GSoC page, if you want to see/vote on applications: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2011/duraspace

...
- Topics which are still on the "back burner" (which need someone to lead a "Special Topic" meeting around them)
- Do we want to schedule a meeting to go over proposed Modularization / Refactoring work in near future?
- Discuss improving how DSpace handles Metadata (From past meetings discussions, this seems popular). Several ideas mentioned recently:
- Updating to current DCMI standards: DS-805
- Creating a new "dspace" internal usage schema (for administrative, or non-DC metadata)? Formalize the "dc" schema to be strictly valid QDC/DC?
- Metadata on all DSpace objects (not just Items)
- Discuss forming a "Documentation Management Team"? Or reworking our procedures for managing/reviewing/approving Docs on the Wiki.
- UPDATE: Jeff Trimble will lead a discussion on this in April or May. Still working on date.
- More discussion of Proposed RoadMap to 2.0 before OR11
- In meantime, feel free to forward thoughts on to Tim or everyone (via dspace-devel or dspace-commit).

JIRA Review, GSoC Applications updates, Commitment on Services Framework discussion |
- JIRA Review: Ended with DS-768
- GSoC Application Updates
- Discussion of Commitment to DSpace Services
- After much discussion about the loop about just talking about services, it has been decide that the "Way forward" is:
- "one way to break the cycle is to write more code. Build something in Services, and post as an example for people to learn from / comment on / etc"
- So, we need more people to just start adopting Services Framework. As we get more comfortable with it, naturally it will gain broader acceptance.
- After much discussion about the loop about just talking about services, it has been decide that the "Way forward" is:
