• Islandora stores it's documentation in Markdown .  Might be something we want to consider for Fedora.  
  • It makes it easier to couple code changes with documentation changes.
  • ISLE also does this.  
  • There are pros/cons to docs in markdown, but it'll be interesting to watch how other projects evolve

Fedora and OCFL:

• There will be support in the spec for extensions (generally speaking) at the ocfl-object level
  • Proposal right now is that there'd be a directory (maybe called "extensions") whereby OCFL extensions can define a subdirectory to put stuff in, functioning as a sort of namespace.  All content under the "extensions" subdir must be in a subdirectory defined by some extension.
  • Peter Winckles started a draft proposal for a mutable head extensions
  • Mutable head was brought up at the leaders meeting, holding a vote right now (through tomorrow, Nov 1) for approval.  
  • Folks seem to be aligning around the mutable head direction

Mutable head impl:

Actions

•  Aaron Birkland  to look explore notion of OCFL client with database as authoritative metadata source + asynchronous writing of the inventory.json file
•  David Wilcox will review the NDSA matrix and pull out the concrete technical requirements that could be considered during the Fedora 6 development.
  
•  Call for comments on https://docs.google.com/document/d/18rSFqqoxixmozZrgPKON59Ojpg5iOu4lsHDNMm23soY/edit# till tuesday
•  Clarify in in documentation that multiple simultaneous writes to OCFL are not supported
