Task List

This task list has been updated as of our meeting on Oct 22, 2019.  The tasks are numbered for easy reference, but are not necessarily listed in priority order.  During this meeting we worked to re-summarize current work status so that we can align this task list with the DSpace 7 Estimation Process (and as such, estimate any we feel should be considered for 7.0 release).  NOTE: Keep in mind, just because a task is listed here does NOT guarantee it will be completed for DSpace 7.  Some of these tasks may need to be delayed for a future release.

Notes

• Last meeting of the DSpace 7 Entities Working Group (2018-19) (on indefinite hiatus).  Our working group is considered disbanded unless we find a reason to meet later in the year (if any remaining Entities effort is needed later in 2020)
  
  • REST API effort (contract & implementation) for Entities is COMPLETE!
  • There are still some outstanding Angular and OpenAIREv4 PRs (see list of "178881628" above), but NO MORE FEATURE PRs are expected
    • One exception we realized is that Dimitris from OpenAIRE is working on a PR to import metadata from the OpenAIRE API (using the existing "Live Import" framework in DSpace 7).  This PR is currently listed as "COMING SOON" above, and should be created by the end of 2019. It can be reviewed by volunteers in 2020.
• Next Steps for still open PRs
  
  • These are considered low priority to review/test in 2020.  The main DSpace 7 Working Group (2016-2023) will be working in organized sprints to finalize the DSpace 7.0 release, so their priorities will be on general DSpace 7.0 features.
    • That said, volunteer developers can continue to review Entities PRs as they see fit.  Tim will also review & test them when his time allows (but only after any high priority DSpace 7 PRs are reviewed/tested first)
  • As Working Group is no longer meeting, any Entities PR discussion should move to #entities-wg in Slack or GitHub. 
  • If a small group wants to talk in more detail about a specific PR, the DSpace Meeting Room is always available for an ad hoc PR meeting.  These can be organized or requested via Slack or Github.
• As the Working Group is not meeting any further, the "178881628" list & "178881628" sections above should be kept updated to let volunteers know the current status of any remaining Entities PRs.
• Thanks again to all who participated in the DSpace 7 Entities Working Group (2018-19) !  It's been wonderful seeing the passion & energy for both Entities & OpenAIREv4 in DSpace 7.  Please consider joining our DSpace 7 Working Group (2016-2023) in 2020 (if you have not already) to help us complete the 7.0 release!
