Minutes

1) News

2) OR12 Developer mtg 

3)  Action items/old JIRA issues

internationalization

-msg out to Ambassadors, some comments on the wiki page, Bram to continue to solicit help at OR and perhaps around release time when it becomes more important

metadata projects

-Sarah P., Amy, Maura Valentio (works with Sue Kunda) to work on updating Dublin Core project (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Updating+the+Qualified+Dublin+Core+registry+in+DSpace+to+the+latest+standards+of+the+DCMI), Val to see if Maureen Walsh would be willing to help, suggested steps 1) document specifically what needs to change, 2)  forward proposed changes to Tim and he will put it on a developer mtg agenda,  and 3)  project team to attend developer's mtg to discuss  

Bram noted that new resource for sharing XMLUI themes has picked up momentum, 3 institutions have already shared: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Repository+of+XMLUI+themes

4) discussion this week?

Top DCAT feature/improvement priorities, led by Val

5) new issues

none

Val:how we might get some momentum going in the community

Amy: will we overwhelm developers by pushing issues? possibly, but we should have discussion anyways so we can get some visibility on the priorities

Jim: embargo feature progressing as scoped, some feedback initially, not much last month

Bram: should we reframe DCAT's role as more of a think tank about feature reqmts - develop a comprehensive set of reqmts and outline what DCAT sees is missing, try to get cmtrs interested and solicit community participation, but really focus on scoping reqmts

Tim: really need to get communicate new features/improvement discussion somehow to those people that manage developers - so that if they are aware / interested they can make their developer time available 

Val: suggest we work on communicating better / more simply, create an 'executive ' summary of the top DCAT priorities

-identify what 3 features DCAT views as most important / revalent for the most number of DSpace users - create hit list, include in presentation at OR

-Claire suggest that these are emailed out regularly - simply expressed/executive summary

-some examples that pop to mind:

--Bram: altmetrics, e.g. measuring alternative forms of impact/web usage of resources. for example, hooking DSpace up to http://total-impact.org/

--Bram: better integration between DSpace and social media

--Bram: exposing dspace as linked data

--Bram: ORCID integration http://orcid.org

-Bram also recommended we include encouragement in our community communications for everyone to vote/comment in JIRA on specific features

highlights on ESI

SAA mtg: per Sarah, good place for exposure 

2) Action Items

Val: should we take the JIRA issue detail off of the "Action items from previous mtg" - and use the 2013 DCAT Discussion Schedule as the master for all issues? Reasoning behind current format is to make sure that for those items that people have made a commitment to take some action that it doesn't get lost

General agreement that we should just have one master list -- on the 2013 DCAT Discussion Schedule and take off incremental actions from the DCAT mtg notes - have a link from the notes instead

Elin: hard to know when DCAT is done w/an issue, when it should move off list

General agreement that each DCAT member make a recommendation about what should happen to their issues, some options could include: 

1. need developer resource/large(or small) project-move/link to Development Proposal page&nbsp
2. DCAT continue to work on building consensus/push forward 
3. low priority/drop from DCAT discussion

DCAT members should feel free to make other recommendations that fit their JIRA issue

Update Dublin Core in DSpace

-team hasn't met / discussed anything yet

-general agreement that team should pick the easiest solution that would create the least controversy/conflict for the community for 1st phase and maybe breakdown project into subsequent phases

3) OR12 Developer mtg 

Sarah leading the open discussion - Elin wants to talk about 456 item type based submissions - on the suggested topics, Bram wants to talk about internationalization issues

Val leading the DCAT/developer collaboration discussion - how has it been going / what can we improve

ALL invited to the pub afterwards! 

4) New JIRA items

5) Discussion this week?

any current issues that DCAT members want to get feedback on their recommendation (push to big/complex project list, drop as low priority, etc.) 

6) Other?-Val nominated this for our DCAT discussion this week - identify the top priorities (big or small, but it would be good to identify one that has a chance of getting in for 3.0)
