Review ideas on DGOC logistics going forward
- team name
- since we've evolved our primary purpose (help w/reviewing JIRA requests and facilitate facilitating community discussions) , should we change our name to speak to new focus?If so, what do we call ourselves? CAT (Community Advisory Team)?we've resolved to retire DGOC (served it's purpose over the last few years working on big projects)
- current group members will now join the "Community Advisor Team" or CAT-->with new focus on facilitating discussions on new feature requests
- meeting/s time - only one time per month
- to provide moving to only one live mtg time a month - top allow for more comprehensive dynamic discussions: alternate time each month - 9am/1314:00 or 3pm/1920:00
- participation
- resolved that we would do the bulk of our new feature reviews outside the mtg
- each week, 1 CAT member will start discussion amongst CAT about a JIRA issue of their choice - summarize issue and proposed CAT recommendations for feedback
- other CAT members make comments asynchronously
- CAT issue discussion leader for that wk will post summary to JIRA issue and, if issue ranks as highly relevant/broad community interest and high priority the issue will be taken to the broader DSpace community for full discussion - confirming interest, outlining requirements, soliciting those interest in working on project
- team members we could have some members contribute asynchronously (
- currently have 12 DGOC members -- only 5 or 6 active because of timezone issues
- we will reduce CAT membership to only those who are / will be actively participating in discussions - target of 8
- resolved that we would do the bulk of our new feature reviews outside the mtg
- team name
