Comment: Smaller institutions and how they will be supported in Fedora 6 - proposal notes that there are significant # of Fedora 3 installations that use Islandora. Islandora is already thinking about migrating issues. Notable in this big picture. Fedora 3 users with custom stacks are likely not the smaller institutions. Other institutions/projects are thinking about supporting OCFL. How do we keep users using fedora.
Comment: Even with migration tooling, migration from Fedora3 will take a lot of effort (rewriting client code communicating with fedora). We target particulary targeting smaller institutions who are still using Fedora3. So it woul be good if at least one of the institutions . in next phase of this grant is such a smaller institution.
Strategic Subgroup Reports and Next Steps
Product Technology Subgroup
- 3 sprints
- Fedora6 is able to write basic OCFL
- we depend on work happening between the sprints → so far this worked great
- groundwork is complete for most features
- modeshape is no longer used
- prerequisites for releasing Fedora6:
- needs to be tested
- be as bullet proof as possible
- development plan:
- clear path to finalising: 8 weeks of sprints (3 srints, each 2 weeks, at least 5 comitters)
- 2 phases: alpha, then beta
- we could use help in documentation
- development team is very effective (complete overhaul of Fedora in 7 sprints!)
- worked out initial Fedora6 testplan (still a early draft)
Q to leadership group: Are there other requirements?
Comment: Good alignment between tactical team and development team.
Communication Outreach Marketing and Community Sub-Group
- 3 Meetings
- next steps for Fedora6 outreach: what are strategies regarding communication?
- We should do a blog post "8 weeks to Fedora6"?
- Idea: Do market research on membership and potential membership: Where could we get professional support to do that? Hire a professsional? Would make sense to approach it from the context of all Lyrasis projects. Currently we don't have time to do that market research. Probably more a long term goal. We need to contact our members now, so it's too late to do that research for this round.
Q to leadership group: Has anyone experience in working with professionals for market research?
Comment: There is an oppurtunity to reach out to the whole Lyrasis community.
Governance and Business Model Subgroup
- Reviewed the membership analysis (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LekFnjP4Cq_WuwnC-fXnU5ugqqjH4izN_2U9uVaSLUo/edit)
- Recommendations out of the report regarding community engagement.
- How do engage our community?
- Focus on groups A and B (more in the meeting notes: 2020-02-07 Governance and Business Model Subgroup Meeting).
- gap between installation sites and memberships:
- Are there any consortiums we could contact in Canada?
Comment: Austria is missing on the list of Fedora installations.
Comment: List is based on registry, if your installation is missing on the list, add it to the registry: https://duraspace.org/registry/.
Comment: Registry is voluntary so not every installation is listed.
