1) Debrief 1) Debrief on DSpace Steering Group Mtg
- Maureen and Sarah attended SG mtg as part of the Tech Planning Group (group that took over work from Vision group - collected use cases that reflect feedback from survey)
- SG mtg to talk through a plan for governance
- agreed on structure and what membership levels mean for governance
- determined who is is on will be in Leadership Group, Steering Group, etc.
- also determined permanent working groups: DCAT (advisory group to SG, TPG, PPG) , Technology Planning Group (TPG), Product Planning Group (PPG), Implementation Group (IG)
- roles to be formalized and
- membership not a reqmt to be on a working group - reqmts for DCAT membership shouldn't change - willingness to participate, DSpace membership not reqd
- DCAT will serve as advisory group to SG, TPG, PPG, IG
- chair of DCAT will sit as an exec ex officio member of the SG discussion
- SG wants to hire project manager - who will chair PPG
- Implications for development - DSpace 5 will develop as normal - incremental changes/ad hoc changes contributed by individuals; but there will be a more directed process for DSpace 6 – with dedicated resources to work on directed development projects
- SG also working on mission for DSpace - consistent with vision group work
- SG has made the following requests of DCAT for now
- DCAT has been asked to gather use cases from community by Sept, TPG currently the TPG only looked at use cases that came out from the survey
- what is DSpace going forward - anything/everything on the table for consideration (do we need a 3rd user interface? brand new architecture?)
- what are the end to end functionality needs (no prescribe prescribing HOW something should be implemented – but identify what needs there are in the community)
- one of the key areas : all of use cases around metadata and plans for metadatawould be about metadata – identify use cases / how best to address metadata needs
- use cases gathered should be gathering use cases consistent with the recent vision that was developed and agreed to - institutional repositories / open access / etc
- what are core use cases integration cases vs. integration use cases
- agree on which prominent use cases will NOT be addressed by core DSpace
- i.e, not a collaboration tool for work in process / unfinished work (data or otherwise)
- project manager - to chair PPG
- DSpace 5 will develop as normal - incremental changes contributed ad hoc by individuals; but there will be a more directed process for DSpace 6 – with dedicated resources to work on directed development projects
- SG also working on mission for DSpace - consistent with vision group work
- by OR14, rewrite the "charge" (mission/goal/activities) of DCAT to include the governance
- DCAT has been asked to gather use cases from community by Sept, TPG currently the TPG only looked at use cases that came out from the survey
2) met
Action Items
...
- the governance - codify what is the charge of this working group
- will DCAT be able to choose some of the work we do? yes, we should be able to help bring issues to the attention of SG - both respond to requests and initiate discussions
- DCAT represents the non-technical part of the community - acknowledged that there is a difficulty in involving those from Asia/other time zones - how can we integrate DCAT charge - state minimum effort for engaging in DCAT topical discussions
- get re-written charge finalized by May 30 and sent to SG, get SG feedback and finalize for OR by June 6
- Bram has started Google doc for everyone to provide input on: http://
- the governance - codify what is the charge of this working group
