(15 mins) Developer Stand Up - Developers give brief updates on their effort (or their team's effort).
- Update/see "Current Work" section below based on your status. Please feel free to update prior to meeting.
- Please highlight any new work (needing reviews/testing), any blockers (for you), and any discussion topics you may have.
- (30 mins) General Discussion Topics
- OR2019 - How did it all go? Any feedback or updates to bring back to the team?
- Updates from DSpace 7 Entities Working Group (2018-19)
- All Entities PRs will now go against the "master" branch and appear in this group's list of PRs (see below). However, detailed Entities design discussion will take place in Entities Working Group meetings. So, if you want to take part in the design or have questions, please join us in our working group meetings (now weekly, every Tues at 15UTC).
- FYI, looking to enhance the "submission-forms.xml" structure to support two types of "fields".
- <metadata-field> - A simple rename of the existing <field> tag to clarify that this is a metadata entry field, e.g. https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace/config/submission-forms.xml#L52-L61
- <relation-field> - A new type of field that will define a relationship between two Entities. This field type may also optionally capture metadata, if the form field supports either defining a relationship or capturing a plain text value (e.g. an Author field would support linking to Person Entities or capturing plain text author names)
- While we are at it, we may also want to change <dc-schema> to just <schema> and <dc-element> to just <element>, etc.
- Improved Estimation Strategy for Beta release. (Estimates should include time for discussion / code reviews, also should be done by multiple developers)
- Development Planning Spreadsheet needs to be updated, so that we can determine what (outstanding) tasks need estimation.
- Will be using Wideband Delphi estimation technique
- (15 mins) Planning for next week
- Assigning PRs for Review
- Next tasks from Development Planning Spreadsheet

Delayed
- (REST Contract) Edit Homepage News: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract/pull/45
- Delayed until after Preview release. General agreement (in meeting on March 21, 2019) that storing HTML in metadata fields is not really ideal behavior. Metadata (from a librarian standpoint) tends to be free of format-related markup (as that allows for easier sharing, understanding of metadata. Currently Community & Collection homepage information is HTML-based and is stored in metadata that is appropriate for a minor subset of information (like the title) but it is better to move large/rich text to bitstreams.
- Proposal here is to consider storing HTML-based markup (for Site, Community & Collection homepages) in Bitstream(s) associated with the object in question. May allow for more CMS-lite behavior in the future
- Timeline for this is uncertain. Possibly in 7 or 8. May depend on how/whether it can be scoped.
- (REST) Scripts & Processes endpoint: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract/pull/17
- Concurrency in DSpace 7 (or 8). What do we want to do when multiple editors are editing the same object? Needs further analysis regarding implementation details
- We've decided (in meeting on March 7, 2019) to use ETags to implement concurrency. REST Contract notes on ETags: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract#etags--conditional-headers
- ETags only update of the two fields match. If someone edits first, your edit would fail and you would get a fail response (422?)
- ETags seems to have broader support in other REST APIs. Recommended also by both Art and Andrea.
...
- Submission & Workflow UI / backend
- Configurable Entities (from DSpace 7 Entities Working Group (2018-19))
- Upgrading Solr Server for DSpace (not required for Preview, as there's no user facing features. However, the earlier we feel comfortable merging this effort the better)
